Shooting a gig tonight with a friends band, it's in a bar in London. So it will be DARK and I'll be up close.
Kit I'm taking with me.
50d
35mm f2
11-16 f2.8
18-135 f3.5-.56
EX568II
ST-E2
I'm fairly certain I'm not gonna be able to use the flash, I ain't asked yet but I can't image the band or punters will be happy with my blinding everyone.
I bought the ST-E2 Wireless Flash Transmitter as I have read it acts as an AF assist? I'm hoping it will help with the focus lock, any comments on this?
Any suggestions for good angles or ideas for interesting shots?
Any ideas for making use of the 11-16? I was thinking getting behind the band and having the crowd in focus looking excited through the band
I'm most concerned about getting the shutter speed high enough, I'm gonna be shooting a 3200iso I was gonna stop down 1 maybe even 2 stops and bring the detail back in processing.
Any general tips?
