good try. but if I were you I would upload my pics on flickr or deviantart or my own server because photobucket always ruins image quality.

thanks for the info jeff

I have never had a problem with photobucket personally.
Good attempt.

i shot most of these shot in M mode with an iso 800 and 1600 without the flash, and the ones with flash i used iso 200 with the +/- at -2...

Cool shots, i would def recomend getting a flash. I have the xti with the kit lens and the 430EX made all the difference.

Ohh and i love stones throw records.

Who played?

[René Damkot]

Use high ISO even when using flash. That way you capture some ambient.
I wouldn't use the flash unless you absolutely need it.

The non flashed images look way better then the flashed ones IMO (technical issues like focus and motion blur aside)

[N_bezel]

thank for the input guys. I am looking at getting the 430ex soon, and yes i totally agree the the non-flash images look way better than the flash ones.

peanut butter wolf, madlib, karrim riggins, and aribian night played

and one more thing, would the nifty fifty be a better lens for concerts and such?
