maaaaaaany photos to go through, the trip was a great way to dive into the deep end and learn how to use this camera and these vintage lenses! (i've learned that I have MUCH to learn).
The following photos are from a concert I wound up at thru sheer coincidence. These are all shot on a pre-AI (Aperture Index) Nikon 50mm f1.4.
I realized after the fact I was shooting at way too low a shutter speed and way too thin an aperture (manual focus in the dark is a CHALLENGE). I could've closed down a stop and shot a stop faster and still woulda been within acceptable ISO range. Learning!
That said, I actually really like the blurriness and unfocus in these, they match the band's unnerving and theatrical noise performance quite well.

out of focus has been appealing to me again, been taking shots where i just point the camera vaguely at my subject without looking in the viewfinder
i took this shot sooo long ago im soooo bad at editing concert photos now
i Avoid it

@(: yeah f1.4 is o . o with the LX100II at f1.7 it was equiv. to ~f3.7 for depth of field, I've never dealt with such razor thin depth of field before. I'm borrowing the 50mm f1.4, 35mm f2, and 105mm f2.5 primes from a friend who got these lenses along with an old nikkormat camera body from her grandfather when he died.
f/1.4 is crazy :o my largest aperture is a 50mm f/1.8, not even close
pics are fire too
