Default Beach heat haze

Is there a heat haze problem at the beach during the summer months?.

Myself and a few others will be coming to Sydney from Adelaide for a few days at the end of February.

Can't remember the ins and outs of the various spots as I was last in Sydney when the A380 prototype came to Australia.

It depends how strict you are with yourself Ryan. For uploading to A.net and JP, about 4pm onwards is ok but before then can be heat hazy even from the beach.

Most of my photos won't see a.net or jp.net.

But I don't want everything ruined by heat haze either.

Dont forget you can get right up to the fence line at the beach, and shoot your 28 to 50 mil standard lens thru the fence, get some relay good wide angle shots of aircraft 30 or so meters from you, heat haze is not a problem
