Welcome to the 2004 Picture site by Mike Montfort Photographer. The show was shot with a Nikon F-65 and a 80 to 200 zoom lens at a fixed 2.8 F on 800 Fuji NPZ film from the front row. (The guy in the white shirt with the big lens). Shutter speeds usually were areound 1/30 to 1/20. The film pictures all start with the file name Scan. Also a Fuji FinePix 203 hand held digital camera was used (files named scf or Dscf). Some were shot with a -2.1 EV which gave me a very good shutter speed with good light levels.
