A friend of mine is playing drums in a band on Tuesday night, and he gave me permission to shoot them. I have never tried to do this with "serious" gear. I believe the space will be pretty small and dark. I'm planning on taking the FA 50mm f/1.4 and the FA 31mm f/1.8. My fastest lenses beyond the 50mm are the Tamron 28-75mm f/2.9 and the Tamron 90mm f/2.8. Will this be fast enough? I tried to buy the 77mm Ltd. today, but it's out of stock in black. :) Is it worth it to try to bring a tripod? I imagine not because of motion blur...anyway, I'd appreciate any thoughts on this kind of shooting.
Thanks, Amita
