Interview with veteran rock photographer Tony Mott

[blackshadow]

I thought some of you might be interested in this interview with Tony - head along to http://www.messandnoise.com/articles/3564717

He's worked for the likes of the Rolling Stones, Queen, Prince, Madonna - he's certainly the best known music photographer in Australia.

I went along to the talk he gave last night, a fun and informative evening. He's quite a raconteur (and a helluva nice bloke)

Thanks for that article link, Richard. Interesting comments about rights agreements.

I find it interesting that he went to a D3 for his first digital SLR. Obviously it's his choice, but he must have had so many things to consider because he's shot film for so long and probably has so many friends that shoot D3 or 1Ds/1D/5D.

Also interesting about the contracts and I agree with his statements. He's obviously got experience and knowledge and that's important with things like this.

He's shot Nikon for over 20 years so it's no surprise he went for a D3 when he went digital.
