Some very nice shots there Charles.
Vivid colours and good compositions.
Thank you!
I take it these are mostly available light shots. I mostly shoot
B&W if i do band
work,next to no available
light colour work.
*All* of the stage shots are available-light shots. I only used
flash for the snapshots which were taken in the band's dressing room.
Do you recall your settings for my future reference.
Sure, but this won't be so helpful for ya. I took a chance with the
"auto-ISO" settings on the DS (limited to 1600). Then I popped the
camera into AV mode, and for most of the shots I had the exposure
compensation set at about -.7 EV. Sometimes I jacked that down a bit
more, sometimes not. Back when I shot concerts with Ektachrome 200
and a K-1000, I used to be an expert at eyeballing the light values
and coming up with an aperture/shutter speed combination that was
usually dead-on. In this day of digital, instant-feedback, variable
ISO.... I've completely lost that skill.
I was cycling between three different lenses, each with a different
max aperture, but used all of them "wide open" all of the time.
