I was not so much talking about trying to stop the props in flight, but
rather on the flight line or in taxi when they have a more acceptable
field of view, or background or whatever. Sometimes its highly annoying
to not be able to get the whole plane where they are parked, but you can
catch them in taxi etc. - I agree in flight, the props should be
blurred out a lil bit, I particularly like the effect of using a semi
fast shutter, so that each blade is showing about 1/10th to 1/8th of the
arc.
As far as stopping the turbine blades on a jet, im not planning on
getting that close in front of one to try, the point was that at those
speeds, it could be accomplished.
And NO -- I am not planning on tossing the camera into the turbine
either -- LOL
Hope i have some nice pics to show you folks when i get back -- first
time to Oshkosh with a digital cam. 20,000 - 30,000 airplanes in one
spot ought to provide some interesting shots -- I HOPE

Will work somewhat if propeller is photographed head-on, but
propellers don't blur the background as the radial blur filter
will--propeller-blur is semi-transparent. Why waste time in PS if it
can be photographed properly in the first place?
