This morning I went up in a 172 to do some aerial photography with my Canon DSLR and 70-300 lens. I left the lens hood at home as it's massive and would probably act as a big parachute in the airflow. I found that the window will stay open by itself, surprisingly, although putting your hand out to grab the window to shut the airflow feels like it's going to rip your arm off!!!
I also found that I wished I'd brought my Nikon 35mm SLR.. I wanted to keep the shutter speed up, and because the Canon is lacking the Nikon's high-speed program mode, I selected the widest aperture I could, which I then realised wasn't the best idea as that lens is quite soft when it's wide open. Oh well....
