I’ve been taking photos at concerts lately and have been getting good shots but I’m not getting great shots if that makes sense.

I use a sony 7IV with a tamron 28-75 and a 70-200. Usually I shoot 1/200, usually auto iso, and then lowest aperature.

  1. I get banding in a lot in photos for some reason and I’m not sure why.
  2. the photos aren’t super clear so I’m not sure what to do. is auto enough?
  3. I’ll be honest I mainly do auto for lightroom editing but i’m not sure if I could be doing more

any advice is appreciated

    Next time you have a concert that you really want to kill the shots, try renting a gmaster series lens… (that’s the best Sony lens series right?)

    I have a Tamron lens a bought a few years back… and I was never really to happy about the photos I got out of it. It should I help with clarity and the look of your photos.

    I’m also curious what your specs are for the image meta data? What the bit rate is, color space, raw? Compressed? This will effect the look a lot.

    I would stay away from auto exposure… unless it’s just to get something quick out.

    I’d look into processing in photoshop… I recommend dodge and burn… find some free or cheap actions so you can speed up the process.

    Hopefully this helped!
