Haven't had a go at live gig photography for a long long time, so went to a semi-gig last night... shame the lighting was abysmal... by that i mean the only time the stage was lit was when people in the crowd with P&S used their flashes...

and the odd coloured lighting.

i feel like i can't do indoor available lighting very well so rip me apart help me improve you lot.

Oh this is unprocessed, aside from a crop and colour tinge in Rawshooter, the light was slightly green and made the girl look like She-Hulk.

Get a 50/1.8. Shoot at ISO1600. That's four and a half stops faster right there, although at the cost of some DoF and noise.

Also, I actually kinda like this shot

How is that unprocessed?

The banding at the bottom looks like you increased the exposure or is that some poor JPG compression. lol

Yeah i've got a 50mm 1.4, but it's no wide enough on APS-C, and dude... ISO 1600?? on a Nikon D70?? I wish dude... ahh i think you're spoilt with your 400D...

Also D70s' autofocus sucks dick in low light, had to manually focus... which was even harder so i just guessed the distance

Nikon didn't get decent ISO until AFTER the D70 was released... i kinda just missed the boat.

>>105493

Banding? Where?

And actually good point, cause converting Raw to JPEG itself is processing. HA! So maybe forget what i said.

I think this is 8/12 quality in CS 2.. 12 would have made it 2.5mb... and i try to limit sizes below 500KB cause i personally hate opening anything larger than 1mb on /p/

But seriously, i can't see any banding...

Bottom, starts under her shoulder.

Three distinct stripes going across the width of the picture.

Usually happens when you correct the exposure from RAW.

That's weird i seriously can not see them.

I'll check the original.
>> Jeremo !iKGMr61IHM
>>105502

HA! that's funny, RawShooter had presets set to +1.0 and i didn't realise it. So it was bumped up, i've restored it to the original now. Thanks for noticing :D

... but still i CAN NOT see them on this image here. Wonder if my monitor is shitted.

Can anyone else see it?

I can see them pretty prominant. I don't know if this will help but I put a red line on the edge of each band that I see. Maybe you will be able to pick them out now?

i can see them on my laptop. the most noticeable part of it is how the light suddenly gets quite a bit darker around here.

again, even with the lines you're showing i can't see them prominently... hmmm thanks alot for highlighting that though.

I re-converted it. No accidental EV comp this time. Resized 50%

If you guys still see it really prominently, it just means that the D70s can't hand the lighting it was given or i was doing something wrong with the in camera settings. Hmmm

I can still see them but not prominantly. They are very subdued now. I really like how that orange glow in the middle looks amidst this very interesting green blue. Nice shot.

Original = Noticed right away

New = I see it after 2 seconds

>>105536

ahhh bugger, oh well. I've lived with the camera for that long... or maybe it's me.. haha.

>>105535

Thank you :) I'm going to leave the colour as it is, as the orange is a nice contrast.


So the new one, it's still there, but the banding isn't that much of a bother?

orange and blue are opposite each other on the color wheel

I don't see the banding with the red. It's easier on the sadows but it is also a bit darker. Needs more boobs.

Split Toning baby. Coolest shit ever. I believe it was Eku who pointed me towards the light.
