I won't bring my Cam along too.. Since I pay $$ to watch, I should enjoy the show rather than playing with the focusing points.. Iso/ av/ shutter..

Yup, But it's for long term investment, it more worthwhile then to change in future.
Was thinking of Gitzo 2541 but out of my budget range.

i think as much as we love our dslr, there are times we would prefer not to bring them out. especially if you go for a concert or a big big event, you rather go there to enjoy the whole feel, the whole effect,rather than busying clicking away through the VF yeah?

anyone with the same sentiments?

went to fullerton area to take photos on my 550d, i realise that i am having a very big problem doing night shot. I cant get a clear picture out of my focus item... and plus the heavy spot light shining at the item it doesnt look nice....

I try to use AWB, use the 3200k light but still doesnt make a different. I use natural mode, standard mode also not happy with it.... damn it.. Currently using AV mode to shot. :embrass: :thumbsd:

anyone any give me advice on how to take a ok/good shot for night? and if i want to have the black and white black ground what mode should i play with?

I think i must go for some photography course to improve on it.
