Concert shots with Samyang 85mm · **1 Like**

Hello!

First pics I share!

I love to shoot in corcerts... Without pass, it's not always easy but it's a good exercise to learn to master new lens! Here are example with Samyang 85mm
Click the links! Because pics were too heavy...

Great work! Are any of those wide open?

Thanks!

f3.2 for the first
f2.2 for the second
The last three were f3.5 or f4
And I set Auto-ISO to 1600 max so the noise can easily be handeled by the K-5 (I think noise reduction is great until 1600). I then add a little DxO Filmpack treatement for a more "film grain" looking

Very good job shooting in those low-light conditions. I think you captured the mood of the show well, and the lens does seem to be sharp. I do musical concerts myself, it's quite demanding and different from other types of photography. Keep up the good work!

The first shot is fantastic. I have the same lens and just shot our xmas cards with it. Good lens.

I almost always use this lens when people ask me to do photos for a party or other event. It's one of my very favorites.
