[QUOTE="laubach road, post: 189339, member: 15421"] Usually, that's my manual setting when shooting [U][B]well-lit[/B][/U] concerts/fashion shows. Most concerts/stage shows may have dark backgrounds, but good lighting directed at its main performers. Here , it's a public/free concert, I suspect they were cutting down on electricity (- they only used a few spotlights, so it's not well lit.) Resulting in images not as bright as I wanted. f/8? Was aiming for good focus. I have to make do with the lenses I have. Maybe experiment with different apertures if I only had fast lens..................;) 1/200 to avoid cam shake images. Images may be a little dark, but I was more focused on getting the shots. Getting more hands-on experience. HTH [/QUOTE]
