If you’re shooting larger venues now, then you’ll probably want the extra reach that the 24-70mm can give you. If you get the 18-35mm, you can grab some good wide angle shots of the whole stage, but you won’t be able to get in any closer than you are currently with your 35mm.

I’d say to just look at the shots you’re normally getting with your prime 35mm. How do feel about those shots?

If you find yourself thinking, “Man, I wish I could zoom in closer on these guys,” then you should go with the 24-70.

But if you look at your current pics and keep thinking, “I wish I had room behind me so I could move back and take in more of the stage,” then you need a wider angle and should go for the 18-35.

Hope that helps! Aloha, Chris

Thanks for all the advice on here! I sort of fell into concert photography in the past year and I’ve been making it work with my Nikon D3100 and 35mm f/1.8.
I’m shooting bigger shows and ready to upgrade. I’ve nearly saved up enough for a Sigma 24-70 f/1.8, but with news of the 18-35mm f/1.8 coming out in July would you still recommend the 24-70 lens?

Many thanks!

Carrie

Fuji has all of the RGB per pixel would the not be a help in stopping most of the problems talked about here. If so why do Nikon and Canon use it both company’s can afford the rights to do so.

Best.

PS and no more having to interpolate the color between the mosaic RGB pattern they have now.

I had the same issue at the ‘secret’ Queens of the Stone Age show last Friday in Brooklyn.

For real… that band put out TONS of free live concert footage. WAY better than anything you can take with your crap phone. I would have said something but I was on mushrooms, and if anyone were to have give me lip I would have flipped out. And I did NOT want to go to a Brooklyn jail on mushrooms.

Other than that it was an amazing show.

I actually found a video of one of the db’s on youtube and I was the only comment saying how bad it was and the reply was “my views are going up” REALLY? is that what matters… maybe I should have gone to jail and beat the piss out of that “person”
