Vocalist Yuko Miyamoto at jazz saxist Bobby Hsu's gig at The Gate 403 in Toronto on Oct 19.
http://www.flickr.com/bruce_m_walker/8117649662/lightbox/ This was a dimly lit club set where I was struggling to get any non-soft shots at all. At one point I accidentally bumped the mode dial from Av to Tv and it set a high shutter speed of 1/160th, then underexposed at f:1.4. Astoundingly these few shots -- until I found the dial set "wrong" and set it back -- were among the sharpest of the evening. It looks a lot like handholding at low shutter speeds contributes to much softness that I'd thought was bad focus. I'm going to explore this fast shutter in the dark in future. K20D, DA* 55/1.4, 1/160th, ISO 1600.
