These are awesome shots!

Been looking at going FX. Either an used D700 or a D610.

Used a D300 for years. Works great but does struggle a little under lesser lighting. I've built up a series of decent primes and got an awesome 80-200 f2.8 so maybe it's time I bit the bullet and splashed out on a D610.

thanks man its well worth the upgrade the low light capabilities are crazy when paired with nice glass, currently use a Nikkor 1.4 and tamron 24-70 2.8

Great shots, it's not easy getting good live shots in poor and rapidly changing light.

My first attempt was rubbish

+ 1. I did some photography at an outdoor music festival this weekend and since the lighting "daylight" was consistent it was pretty easy getting good shots. Personally when doing this kind of stuff I generally use the spot metering option on my camera so I can isolate my exposures for the subject and have less problems with dark background in combination with bright lighting etc. It's still not an easy situation to get well exposed pictures and I find removing the colour and using black and white really works best for me personally. My favourite lens for live photography, pre digital & autofocus, was an old breech mount Canon FD 100mm f2.8 lens.
