Hi all
A little help if you can. I am running a Nikon D50 but also have regular use of other more 'powerful' equipment, having cut my teeth as a film Nikon user.
My problem is that as an event producer I stage a lot of events. Each and every time I try to shoot the events, the acts or artists on stage - being lit by follow spots and the like - get totally washed-out. It strikes me as though the digital cameras of today simply can't handle the range of contrast involved in shooting a live event.
Does anyone have any words of wisdom or warning to help me out?
Your assistance would be VERY welcome
Many thanks
Jon
