While not a Sony, or even a mirrorless camera, the moment a pilot–Santiago Borja— captured is incredible. It was taken at the moment of a lighting flash:
A strong, roiling updraft; a smooth, flat anvil; and the overshooting top — all features of intense developing thunderstorms.
And over the Pacific en route to South America. Borja is a first officer for LATAM Ecuador Airlines. He took the photo with a Nikon D750, south of Panama from the cockpit of a Boeing 767-30.
Borja said:
Since I carry my camera everywhere, I started trying to capture storms and in-flight experiences some time ago combining my two greatest passions: flying and photography.
A couple takeaways from Borja…take you camera everywhere too, and it doesn’t matter what brand it is, as long as you get the picture.
…My daily shooter is Sony A1 with a vertical grip and various Sony lenses attached like the FE 20mm F1.8. Find more gear recommendations in our shop. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
