Figured out the shutter speed trick for concert photos and it changed everything
I kept getting these blurry messes at local shows in Austin no matter how still I held my phone. Tried bumping ISO and lowering aperture but they still looked like garbage. Then a guy next to me told me to set my shutter to 1/125 minimum and just deal with the darker exposure. First time I actually got clear shots of the singer jumping off the monitor. Anyone else have a go to setting for low light gigs?

Wait, so you're telling me I've been taking blurry photos of crusty indie bands for YEARS when all I had to do was stop being lazy and just bump the shutter speed? That's like finding out there's a cheat code for life.

Did you check your ISO too? That's the real silent killer of sharp shots.
