pnoize2k4 Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 Canon 350D. Is the 580EX worth the extra money or should I just go for the 430EX? I also heard Sigma produces Canon-compatible lenses. Kung kulang yung budget, I might go Sigma nalang (unless anyone has any sigma flash horror stories they want to share). many thanks!<{POST_SNAPBACK}> get the 580EX or 550EX. From what I heard, the protective coating of Sigma Lenses tend to fade within 5 years or so. However, the Sigma 500 DG Super is a good buy. I've used this in a couple of occassions and IMHO is worth every buck. Quote Link to comment

mistyglasswindow Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 buttakal: while most photographers have shifted to digital, a lot of us still use film once in a while. in commercial photography, photographers still use medium format film. my film camera:http://img297.imageshack.us/img297/9037/rolleicord3model2thumbnail9kx.jpgRolleicord III<{POST_SNAPBACK}> my brother just bought something that looks like this... but it's a seagull...

pnoize2k4 Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 (edited) I guess it's time for another tip... Shooting Concerts Most of us want to shoot concerts, trying to capture the emotions and the music. But how do we do this using only a still digital camera? Here are some tips: 1. As much as possible, do not use flash. Flash will only destroy the mood by killing the stage lights and often times will overexpose the subject. Invest in low light lenses (big apertures), for canon there's the cheap but highly recommended 50mm/f1.8 which sells for about 5k. 2. Try to study the movement of the subject. Look at how they move about on-stage, do they jump? or would they rather stand still? 3. Call their attention, musician will often play with the camera or with the photographer. Try calling out their name while holding up your camera during music breaks or gaps. here are some samples: http://static.flickr.com/4/5925772_f2bc4a9255_o.jpgJ. Martin of Retrospect http://static.flickr.com/35/64921475_43d59de61c.jpgNathan of Bamboo Yes, I called Nathan's name to get this shot. I was just below the stage.
