I went to my 1st 'old tyme fiddler's concert' last night. Thought it would have some good photo ops. I have to admit I didn't know what to expect but it was a blast!
This fiddler was one of the organizers. I shot with either the 85mm f1.2 or 200mm f1.8 all night. This was with the 85 @ f1.6 1/250 iso=200 with a 1d mkii.

lol, no except for cropping this image was converted from raw in CS & that's all. The dof of the lens at the distance I was shooting is very narrow - his face is actually moving out of the zone of apparent sharpness. Here is another from the concert shot with the 200 f1.8.
This was shot at f2.5 & the dof is also very narrow.

Thanks for the comments!
