Concert Photography (open thread)

Not sure if this should be in People or Misc, but what if it's a shot with no people? I don't have many concert photos, but have been wanting to get into it more and would love to see what everyone else has.

Hi, I use my Fujis all the time for concerts. These shots were captured with my XPro 1 and 18mm f2.

But, but the 18mm is garbage it can't take pictures look at the extreme corners at 200%

Yep it's just awful, if I shoot wide open, under expose by 5 stops then recover the image in Lightroom and boost the shadows by 200% you can really see how bad the lens is

I've been thinking of ideas for a new show and this came together when gathering up images.  Coincidentally all shot with the 56mm, though I typically shoot closer and wider.

 

I think they work nicely as a set... all monochromatic, impersonal, set back a bit (though for the sneaker shot I was in the photo pit right up against the stage).  Based on the room where this might happen, I might do half the show like this on one wall and half more in your face, identifiable stuff on the other.  Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Awesome photos everybody. :yesway:

 

Here are a few from a bar show I shot Saturday night. Really wishing I had FW4 for it. The band wants to do a promo shoot, hopefully sometime this week. :yesway:

Shot my first gig with the X-T10 yesterday (I only have the 18-55 kit right now, planning to get the 35 f/1.4 next). Was pleasantly surprised by the autofocus performance.

The monochromatic set is stunning and really recreates the feel of alternating colors in the shows. Combining with wide angle shots gives a great balance. What settings do you find give you the most reliable exposures?

Had my X-T1 in my coat pocket with the 35/1.4 on it at the opening gig of the Fun Lovin' Criminals world tour in Dublin last night took these from the middle/back of the venue. I know the guys from my music days so I was going to be shooting the gig but as the wife got me a birthday gift of two tickets thought I'd just go and enjoy but, well you know...

Is that Eric Fish in the second and third image?

Anyway, very good shots! I love how you did just not clip his fingers in #2, but I like the contrast in #1 & #3 better. Can you tell us about ISO? Are those Acros(?) out of the camera, or did you process them yourself?
