So I am no professional photographer by any means, however I will say after reading this forum a lot I've learned a lot to improve my photos. I was able to sneak my DSLR (XSi) with my Nifty Two-Fifty lens in. Granted I was in the CHEAP seats at the top of the stadium, but here are some of my favorites (out of the 600 I took). Be gentle ;)

Not bad considering you were int he cheap seats...Still pretty good.

I just can't believe you got that camera in!

Not bad at all mate.

Well done on sneaking it in, I thought about it when I saw them in Wembley last month but bottles as I didnt want to get my gear confiscated or worse still getting kicked out.

Wish I had now as there were loads of cameras in the stadium.

Hope you enjoyed the show, I thought it was amazing..

I like the last one. How did you sneak that big of a camera in?

Next time you have to sneak in a 70-200!
Really like the one of Bono leaning over the rail.

Ha ha! Basically I wore some baggy jeans, put the XSi in one pocket and my 55-250mm in the other pocket and wore a long baggy shirt. They actually hurried me through security as I was walking "too slow" haha!
