Thank you Cabster.

Yeah microphones were a big problem, there were around 5 place at the front of the podium.

In all honesty I've no idea what I did focus wise. It's set on spot though but I've manual focus some and others where focused recomposed but that isn't the problem I believe. What you're telling me is that I should pay more attention to the composition
I can tell you I forgot that a bit while shooting, it took me already quite some effort to have the exposure right and the focus under these condition. Normal portraits and auto-racing are far easier to do


Are there more on the forum that do concert photography?
I don't see photos often here.

The K10D does that as well, it's the double focus check.
Pentax is one of the few if not the only one that use it these days.

I haven't hear complains about AF accuracy problems with the K5 so it seems to be doing well.

The lens is discontinued but the new price was around 600€/US$, I think you probably end up paying that now for secondhand though.
Don't know if you had that in mind ^^;
You would end up paying 1000+$ for this lens today...if you can find one.
Really that's expensive, looks like a great lens though... but for that money

I wonder how it would preform against the Carl Zeiss Makro-Planar T* 100mm f/2 that goes for slightly more new.

Ceiling is the best because it will look the most natural, most light come from above us after all (sun, lamps, ect.).

Sites like rapid share and the likes most of the time have a file limit, I dont think those would be really useful for 6.6 GB files.

With this you can set up your own FTP http://filezilla-project.org/
I've never done it though

You can also create a torrent off course, certainly if you need to send to multiple persons this would be the best solution since it gets faster the more people have it.

This basically it how to make a torrent, in utorrent but they all work in the same way.
After this you can send the .torrent over the email, all they need to do is click on it and it will download your photos.

Quote:
1. File > Create new Torrent (or CTRL + N)
2. Select the files and or directories

3. Trackers: This is probably the hard part for most people. But it’s pretty easy, just put in one of the popular public trackers. You can use one or more trackers, but in general one is enough.

Here are some good trackers you can use:

http://open.tracker.thepiratebay.org/announce

http://www.torrent-downloads.to:2710/announce

http://denis.stalker.h3q.com:6969/announce

udp://denis.stalker.h3q.com:6969/announce

http://www.sumotracker.com/announce

Put one of these in the tracker box

4. Do NOT tick the private torrent box (unless you’re using a private tracker)

5. Save the torrent and send it to your friends

I actually wonder if the 645D will also support SDXC over time, with the large size photos that one might benefit the most at the moment.
Although Video also take up quite some room.

Too bad, but you can have everything right, maybe later?

Yeah dont forget to charge your battery, my was depleted but luckely was so smart to take the spare with me ^^;

Guys and Girls I really want some feedback on my photos.
Do you prefer B&W or the coloured ones?
And what do you think about the movement in the photos?
I've some photos that are sharp but they look so static in my eyes, what do you think?

1. My Tamron 17-50 focuses much quicker. Possibly as much as twice as fast. (remember the K20D is already slower than a K7). Part of it seems to be that the screwdrive is more powerful, and partly it doesn't seem to need to fine-tune the focus at the end like the K20D did.
Do you mean the double focus check with that?
I thought they still used that
