Very atmospheric, brilliant!

I chose a moment when there were only a handful of photographers in shot, but although there were quite a few it didn't look as many as 24. However, to be fair, I wasn't watching the photographers!

If you want to enter club photography competitions, then you have no choice...it's 50x40cm or nothing. Which is slightly smaller than 20x16 inches, for no apparent benefit the required spec having been changed.

If we're talking aesthetics, then it's a matter of how it looks. We made a choice regarding exposure, composition, etc., so hopefully we're up to deciding what mount size will suit a particular image best.

I agree with you, large mount is not always best.

Here's a selection of images from tonight's Manchester Apollo show. Paloma put on facebook a reminder for us all to take photos at her show, very unusual for it to be openly welcomed! Anyway, nobody seemed to mind and I took along the Q with the 5-15mm lens. Ludicrous ISO values and not really close enough, so nowhere near technically perfect, but I like them anyway:

Comments welcome!

many thanks for info. Duplicated thread though, so I'm closing this one to avoid confusion.

The 12-24mm is an exceptional lens, with very low distortion as well, so I'd go for that. Much more versatile than a prime.

There was nothing wrong with the samples I had, they were spot on, but the feature is available if needed.

Lots of people miss the full stop in that, but,as you say, not a huge issue. Things get posted in the wrong place all the time and they only get moved if it seems helpful.

Yes, I still have mine. The only problem is that it's effectively as new, so no point in selling it for peanuts and then finding a lens has failed and I needed it as a spare after all. So it makes me reluctant to commit to selling just now.
