Your pictures are amazing! Which Chicago shows are you going to? I'll be at 1 & 2 and my only camera will be my iPhone 5S so if you're going to be in GA for those shows that would be awesome for me. Then I won't have to feel too bad for not getting around to buying a new camera for this tour.
Justin, you have a gift. Thanks so much for sharing it. Maybe you'd like to start a thread of your own IE photos with your name in the title? It might help to permanently attach your name to the photos within the fandom--ie, years from now when people are requesting images, we get to say, "It's one of the Justin Kent photos. There's a whole series in his thread!"
Also justin. Did you go for a mirrorless or not?
All of these are from a mirrorless, yeah. I have a 5DMkII for the professional gigs but I haven't bothered trying to get it into any of these shows. I'm just shooting with my Fuji x100t. It's a pretty amazing piece of kit but not at all something I'd recommend to people looking for a first or only camera. It is very limited in that it is a fixed 35mm lens and it has a ton of tech packed into it that would be wasted on people just looking for a quick and easy point and shoot. Personally I love the hybrid viewfinder and the ability to shoot with it like a rangefinder. I spent the first 5+ years of shooting concerts using nothing but a 50mm prime so the fixed lens is something I'm able to make work for me.
I don't even own a full frame... 7D, but work with prime lenses 80% of the time. I agree they work like a charm. I usually switch out between the 135mm and 50mm.
Your pics are making my hands itch to go and try some mirrorless since they are easy to take into venues. Thanks for being so honest and open about your gear! Your a cool guy!
I'll be at 1, 2, 3 & 4. I'll have my camera with me but for a few of them I'm lining up with friends who can't make it until mid-day so I might not be in quite as good of spots as I was for Vancouver & LA. I'll get some shots though either way
thank you for the kind words!
Yeah, I might be up for starting a thread of images. Maybe after Chicago once I have a chance to edit some of those shots. I can do some kind of super post.

We met on Weds! I was with Lies and Phil looking and your amazing Roxy book....you took out pic for us! So good to meet you. Did you get a chance to give the book to anyone?
Hey Hey!
Good to meet you too! what was your name?
I got my book to someone who should be able to get it to the right folks, yes. Now I just get to wait and see if anything comes of it

Nice shirt, Edge! Didn't Adam have a green one like that on the last tour?

Can we start a Take the Polo off the Edge twitter account? And will everyone post a photo?

I have not noticed the shoes!
I was not around here for the T shirt era or 360 but I would definitely not be complaining. The tees show off his pretty neck, and the return of the low necked black undershirt from ZOOare not things I could complain about.which shows of so much of his pretty chest
