Having just been there today, here are some pointers for those who are going down to shoot:
1. Lenses. I think a good lens to use will be a 80-200mm F2.8 lens. I was shooting at F2.8 most of the time with my 105mm (dunt have a 80-200mm :bsmilie
. I wish I had a slightly longer lens to shoot some stuff though.
2. No flash photography technically (though I saw lots of flashes from PnS cameras) during the aerial displays.
3. Location: You want to be DIRECTLY across Stamford Road (on SMU side) directly opposite the entrance to the museum. This gives you the BEST view, because most of the performances take that as the center-stage. You also want to set up camp early (at least 30 minutes early), because there are SOOOOOO MANY people!
A tripod will be useful, but not essential in my opinion (shoot at ISO400/800!)
I haven't got fantastic shots unfortunately because I arrived a little late and didn't know what the hell was going on..... ;p so go early and chope space. Look out for my tissue-paper choped space tomorrow! :bsmilie:
