Can I join you guys? I use Pentax K5, will bring a 60 250 lens, as well as 16 50. Maybe 50 1.4 as well?
For this kind of shot, 24-70 is too short. At 70mm on full frame you have to walk up to the stage and block people and attract the attention of security guards.
70-200 f/2.8 is a better range. You also need the speed of the lens as the place isn't very brightly lit. Minimum ISO 1600. Helps if you got a monopod. Please do not use flash or auto-flash, the security guards will definitely come and talk to you nicely.
So bodies like D7000 (good to ISO3200), D700 (good to ISO3200-6400), D800 (good to ISO 6400), D3s (good to ISO 128K), D4 (good to ISO 128K) are easier to get more useable shots.
Okay, i am in. see you guys at the meeting point.

See you guys later..the sky will pour soon but it should clear up by late evening if NEA is to be trusted.
Anyways, bare in mind there's an earlier show from 7:30-8:15pm…
So meeting at 8pm…you will be right smack in the middle of a set…most likely to find everyone will have to be after 8:15pm..not nice to interrupt…
I might be there for the earlier set at 7:30pm also…depending on the sky so if i'm stuck in the crowd..will meet up at 8:15pm..
