Not cheap but I photographed concerts at the SAP Center in San Jose as the team photographer for the Sharks and the arena photog - many acts making you shoot from sound board area - thus a 400mm f/2.8 is optimal.

Thank you Don, I really appreciate the advise on this! I will have a look into this

[Whats the Craic]

Whats the craic everyone? My name is Lucas and I am new to the Alpha Universe but I am delighted to see so many talented creators. I hail from Dublin, Ireland and I work around Photography and Film revolving around music. I also found a love for capturing headshots in recent years. I look forward to getting to know some of you amazing people and I hope to cross paths with some of you one day during my journey. Slainte
