Camera Labs

Hello All,

These are some pictures I took for college newspaper.

Great event, feat. Absentstar, T-Pain and Third Eye Blind.

Camera Canon 40d, lens 28-135mm IS USM
ISO 1600, focal length varied.
TV mode locked at 100 on most of the pics.
RAW
post processing - reduce noise and unsharp mask
Flash unfired except 1-2 pics.

There are several photographers working in the scene
one of them have 3 camera, 1 40d, 1 xti and 1 mark2/3 with
tele L lens, wide L lens and medium standard lens.. Wow.. that gears
must be heavy (all of the camera mounted with Flash (speedlite type).

Overall I'm pretty satisfied with pics I took,
Please let me know what you think.

Concert shots are pretty tricky, but you've grabbed some great shots there - I particularly like the one of the girls screaming - were they posing or were they really that oblivious to you?!

whoa! 3rd eye blind pics!!

great shots, seeing stuff like this is what inspires a newbie like me.

Thanks Gordon,

they don't pose for me. I am standing between the stage and the audience, when I turn back I saw they are screaming. Thanks for quick
focus, I was able to take the pic.

glad that it helps. Play around, experiment with wide shot, tele shot, vertical and horizontal.

Really like all the shots.

I love the lighting effect you get from the different coloured stage lights, give a really magical look and feel to the photos.

I really want to start photographing bands live but I'm still trying to get into that scene, although I'm not trying to hard to get in since I have exams soon, but I'll be making enquiaries - although your story on how you get into these events etc would be most helpful.
