Hi, I thought some of you maybe interested to see how this combo goes at festival shooting. I used M mode and shot at f2.8 and kept adjusting the timing and ISO (800-1600) to suit the light. The web gallery is 10mb so if you have a slow connection it may be a bit slow.......thanks, feedback is welcome, taojones
thanks..I was shooting for the bluesfest itself. To add to the info I shot with spot metering in raw and processed through lightroom. All outside shots 24-70mm in P mode ISO 400. Some shots outside with fill in flash. When I used the flash at night outside I used M mode ISO 800 f5.6 at 1/6th of a second, I like the slight blur effect this setting gives and makes for good BW.....thanks again t

Ian Brown, Mark Knopfler, Ray Davies, Tom Waits (I think), Jools Holland...
Hmm, I see what you mean! :-)
Most of those artists have played over the years but now it has become a mixture of music, with world music, jazz, folk, blues etc. I think maybe changing the name would be good but its so well known in Australia as 'The Bluesfest' they will probably stick with it..thanks t www,bluesfest.com.au

Enjoyed your Bluesfest gallery. Some great captures.
