I shoot with a Nikon D90 and can get away with 3200. On my old D50 I could maybe sqeeze out 1600 before I had to use noise reduction software. If your shots have too much noise in them you can always convert to black & white. I'll do that if the colors of the lighting made a good shot look bad.

I got it because I'm friends with the lady who runs our marketing office. This lady has alot of contacts and I ended up shooting for the Harold Union. It's just a small bi weekly paper run by the United States Army Garrison in Wiesbaden. It was a great time and I got to shoot throughout the whole concert and even got to meet everyone. So it was only a free concert for US military, but Daughtry will look good in my portfolio. I just got my first media pass for the Daughtry / Gabriel Iglesias concert on Ramstein AFB in Germany.

I have been offered my first photo pass for a gig in London tomorrow and it suddenly dawned on me, am I supposed to have a ticket for the gig that I have been offered, or do they assume that you don't have a ticket? I don't want to get there having been told that my name is on a list on the door for photo passes and then find out that I am supposed to have a ticket too. Thanks for your time Alex Hi Todd,

The reason i want to shoot is to add a different kind of photography into my portfolio but I'm not sure who exactly I'm supposed to contact for a photo pass. I don't want to sell the photos or anything i just want to shoot local bands and support them in the best way i can. Hello todd
