Tonight & tommorrow the school I work for is doing a tribute show to Michael Jackson and Im taking photographs both nights. Theyve done shows in the past (Queen & Abba tributes & Oliver) and Ive taken photographs at the shows theyve done in the past. The two nights should get me about £120 before tax for the chance to play with cameras, yes please
The schools got a Nikon D2H with two lenses, a 24-120mm f3.5-5.6 and a 70-300mm f4-5.6 and two 2GB CF cards. The D2H is great for this sort of thing, its only 4MP but it can shoot up to 8fps. I usually end up shooting quite a few photos over the two nights and some come out quite well but they could do with buying a better low light lense.
Im taking my own camera as well, a Nikon D50 with a 18-55 f3.5-5.6 but because it only shoots at 2.5fps Im only using that for backstage photos.
Because it involves kids I cant post any photos, but I was just wondering if anyones done something similar before?
