I was shooting around f/2.8 and somewhere around 1/50-1/125 or so. You can read about how I approach exposure in these two articles: <a href="http://ishootshows.com/2008/03/25/concert-photography-how-to-metering-exposure-pt-1/" rel="nofollow">Concert Photography How to: Exposure pt. 1</a> <a href="http://ishootshows.com/2008/04/04/concert-photography-how-to-metering-exposure-pt-2/" rel="nofollow">Concert Photography How to: Exposure pt. 2</a> With flash photography, the approach is basically to set your camera exposure for the ambient light while setting your flash exposure for the subject. Hope this helps. Hey Annie,

With flash photography, the approach is basically to set your camera exposure for the ambient light while setting your flash exposure for the subject. Hope this helps.

Lighting at concerts is frequently an issue. Like to hear how you approach it. And what settings did you favor? Lighting at concerts is frequently an issue. Like to hear how you approach it.

The set with Tuomas was one of the more serendipitous moments when the backlighting flared up – most of the time the stage lights were much more subdued.
