The Australian INXS Tribute Band played a fantastic live show at the Trak Lounge in Toorak on May 30th.<\/p>\n

Photos By Passy covered this event as the band’s photographer of choice.<\/p>\n

I went along with my standard Sony A-77 setup, and I also took a travel photographer friend along, (who has never shot a Band before), and gave him the Sony Alpha-55 to shoot with.<\/p>\n

The band put on a great performance to a packed house, and we were delighted to be the guys capturing it in images for them.<\/p>\n

We had access to all areas, including the VIP Bar, as well as the band’s backstage room. Trak Live Lounge certainly is a great venue with superb stage lighting, great video effects, and well designed tiered viewing areas.<\/p>\n

EQUIPMENT:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sony Alpha A-77 Camera
\nTamron 17-50mm F2.8<\/p>\n

Sony Alpha A-55 Camera
\nTamron 24-70mm F2.8<\/p>\n

This shoot was done at ISO 1000 on the A-77, using the 17-50mm F2.8 lens with a shutter speed of 1\/100 to 1\/125. <\/p>\n

We probably could have gone down to ISO 800 or lower for some of the shots, but chose to use ISO 1000 for the whole shoot. <\/p>\n

The A-55 was set to SCN Sports Mode, and so all shots on this camera were done in auto mode.<\/p>\n

The A-77 produced better shots than the A-55; however we got some good close ups on the A-55 using the 24-70mm F2.8 lens, and we were able to make use of these in the final album. <\/p>\n

The lighting was so good that there was minimal photoshopping required of the images from both cameras. <\/p>\n

All that was done was adding a bit of gamma, and sharpening up some of the shots. <\/p>\n

The INXS Band is off to Darwin and Sydney over the next couple of months, but we hope to catch them again in Melbourne sometime in 2014. <\/p>\n

The Doors Show was the support act for the INXS Show, just in case you were thinking you may have seen some of this write up previously. <\/p>\n

We would definitely like to shoot at the Trak Lounge again, it is a great venue, with very good lighting and the staff and management are extremely professional. <\/p>\n
