night club photos (NWS)

I've been busy busy busy lately with tons of shoots and events. I covered two Halloween parties friday. This one is at Solas and was a nice, quiet crowd. I got free dinner from the night, compliments of the owner, and a possible commercial contract for the restaurant.

Great job JBaz! And thanks for leaving in the EXIF.
How do you guys such sharp shots at such slow shutter speeds (1/5s - 1/15s).
I can barely get them sharp at 1/60s with flash.

I use proper breathing techniques along with proper bracing techniques to make sure my camera is stable when shooting. Similar to shooting firearms really. I also use the 2nd curtain sync when using flash and for those really long exposures (some are 1-2 seconds long) I used my monopod in the club.

Here's some more of another Halloween party at Mosquito later the same night.

Using the balloon as a mirror is a great idea.

Thanks Yap!
...and I've gotta remember to start putting my EXIF data up on my photos too. My bad everyone. Usually it's late at night/early morning when I put some of these up...I'll have to make myself a reminder the next time I upload...

EACH ONE TEACH ONE, RIGHT? LOL

nice halloween shots everyone...wish my bar had some of the same scenery as you guys

Steady hands I guess? I use the Canon Wrist Strap, so it keeps my hand pretty much locked on to the camera.

So far my record is a steady shot at around .4", I normally shoot at 1/4.

Wow, cool shots everyone. I never knew this thread existed. Reminds me of the good old days before the wife and kid!! I was too busy partying to even think about taking a camera!

heres my first ever nightclub shooting...not really into this sort of photography...but thought id give it a crack...let me know what you think!
