I was stuck in row G, so there are no close ups to speak of, but my 100mm/2.8 wasn't the worst lens I could have been stuck with. Less noise than I would expect there to be at 1600.      And here are some from an Old 97s show a while back. Better position in the crowd, but less knowledge of my camera by far. (No exif on these, sorry.) Looking back, I don't know why I was so crop-happy that day. Eh:     Critiques welcome, I'm really trying to study up and get better.

JohnnyC posted:I know exactly how much a promo shot is worth, and the reason that I'm saying that you're overcharging if you charge $250 is that you're overcharging. Just because you drive a $400 1985 Corolla doesn't mean I was overcharged for my 2006 model. Different people have different needs. You certainly got what your promo shot was worth. You paid nothing, and you've gotten nothing. You and your band full of kids-having-fun-but-not-making-money need to find a student photographer who will shoot you for free. YOU would be overcharged if you paid $250 for a promo shot and got that photo in return. However, bands who are serious about doing it for a living, who want a photo they can submit in a press release without embarassment, should put some money into a photographer who knows what they're doing. They will be lit properly, from flattering angles, and get a selection of quality photos to choose from rather than the caliber snapshot you so smugly posted of your band. JohnnyC posted:Charge like you're lucky to be asked to do promo shots at all, because you really are. You are funny. A chance to be lucky enough to photograph your local band's DELICATE GENIUS for free! Where do I sign up?!
