Hello,
I have a Canon S1 is and have only used it a few times so I am a complete novice. I am going to be going to a concert and would like to be able to get some good pictures. what would be the best settings for the conditions that would be at a concert, low light, stage lights etc.

remember I am very new to this camera and photography so please be as basic as possible in your suggestions

Thanks in advance


Step 1. Make sure photos are allowed.

Step2. If the answer to step 1 is yes, set your ISO for about 800 and point and click away. DO NOT USE FLASH during the performance. It disturbs the artists and annoys the heck out of the audience. Bring plenty of memory cards and extra batteries. Actually you were given some good advice when you were told to RTFM. Get as close to the stage as you can, then turn around. The ;audience will give you some of your best shots.
