A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

how to get good concert photos (alien.top)

I've been taking photos at concerts lately and have been getting good shots but I'm not getting great shots if that makes sense.

I use a sony 7IV with a tamron 28-75 and a 70-200. Usually I shoot 1/200, usually auto iso, and then lowest aperature.

  1. I get banding in a lot in photos for some reason and I'm not sure why.
  2. the photos aren't super clear so I'm not sure what to do. is auto enough?
  3. I'll be honest I mainly do auto for lightroom editing but i'm not sure if I could be doing more

any advice is appreciated

500? Jesus those photos are gonna be dark and grainy as hell especially if you're shooting that high of an iso. Although, it might be unavoidable. I try to keep my iso as low as possible when I can, but I've also never shot into a dim venue.
