Concert Pics

immiketoo · 10-16-2010, 10:36 AM

Went to see Doyle Dykes last night in Skokie Illinois. Cool venue and an amazing guitarist. At the end of the concert he donated the proceeds to the theater. Pretty cool. He said, "You know, I don't want a dime for tonight's performance." Like it just hit him right then. Apparently, the theater is having some issues. Anyway, here's the pics. 5DMkII and my 70-200L 2.8II IS. All hand held (for bosstones )

I am really impressed with the quality of the sound just using the onboard mic on the camera. That, and click on the 1080p button for youtube. Pretty impressive IMO.

EDIT: I just noticed the red dot in many of the images. I checked the originals, and it appears to be in the exact same spot. Is this something I need to worry about? Its an easy enough fix, but it seems more pronounced than random spots caused by high ISO or long exposures...

Yeah, the 5D2 is amazing at high ISOs.

I have to send it in to get re-mapped for the dead pixel I found. I was so busy doing the post processing on the faces and clothing, I didn't notice it until I looked at them here. 6 to 8 weeks according to Canon

Nice shots, Mike! Who needs a tripod or monopod?!

Nice, did you use a TC when shooting the performers?

Ummmmm, whats a TC? Tele converter? If yes, I did do a few shots with a 2X, but only two of the shots above are with it.
