BAD SNEAKERS

A couple of week ago I was talking to a student after a workshop who just happened to mention he was in a band(which always pricks my ears up...photo opportunity!) I thought, what a great way to test the TAMRON 70-200mm F2.8 lens I have. I rocked up to the club to see the band "Bad Sneakers" which play great classics from years gone past and grabbed my spot close to the front with no obstruction!. I'm glad I got some early shots in because it wasn't too long before there was a full crowd on the dance floor boppin away to the classics being played! The guys have a great rapport with their crowd and would suggest them if you want a fun band at your next party. You can find their details here Most of the shots were taken at the 200mm end of the lens with the NIKON D700. Shots were at 2500 ISO which proved to be very handy in this type of lighting and I must say that the digital noise levels are VERY low indeed.I also shot mostly in "P" mode which let me concentrate on the focusing as the TAMRON lens did struggle a bit in low lighting and so used manual focusing ring which is easy to use,especially looking through the big viewfinder the NIKON has. Thanks Glen for the invite to see you guys and to see some shots taken of the night, have a look here
