Event

Music in the Square 2021 - MixTape Band Dallas

Event

On Friday, June 11th the second of the Music in the Square concert series held every June in Frisco Square. Last Friday’s band was the MixTape Band. A very invigorating band that plays a variety of music, hence their name. They definitely had the The Square rocking. Attendance was fantastic, spread out across all of Simpson Plaza.

During the event I took about 600 images, mostly with my little Sony but also some with my iPhone. Below you will find my picks after culling through all of them.

Music in the Square 2021 - Justin Mason

Event

On June 4th Frisco Square had it’s first concert of the summer music concert series, “Music in the Square.” This year the first concert was Justin Mason, a Dallas based country artist. Attendance was quite good all things considered and everyone there had a good time. I of course brought my little camera and took a “few” shots, about 350 to be more exact. Below are some of my favorite picks!

I shot most of these images with my Sony RX100VI, with a few shot on my iPhone 12 Pro Max. Both set to shoot in RAW, of course. As the concert is in Simpson Plaza I had easy access to the stage and could shoot from lots of angles. The only thing I couldn’t do was get on the stage; but with the Sony’s 24-200mm zoom I was able to get some tight shots. It’s not the best camera in low light; however a concert has bright stage lights making light of little concern.

CameraTech: Sony RX100

Obviously I love photography or I wouldn’t put as much time and money as I do into this hobby. That means it doesn’t take much for me to enjoy taking a photo. I’ve had a lot of cameras I enjoyed using. Up until two years ago my favorite camera was actually the one found on the iPhone, especially with the advent of the iPhone 7 and all those that followed. I still enjoy using my iPhone as a camera and a great many of the snapshots I take. The phone I’ve truly enjoyed more than any in a very long time, the Sony RX100 Mark 6. It’s a super compact super zoom with a 1” sensor that takes amazing images.

The camera isn’t a low light beast, my iPhone 12 Pro handle low light much better; but in good light or even decent light the Sony RX 100 rocks! It’s not an inexpensive camera; it’s actually more expensive than most of the current iPhone models. It though, like my iPhone, fits in my jacket pocket and is super easy to carry. When I’m ready to take great photos the Sony is ready too. It has a flip out screen, but I usually use the small viewfinder. Many don’t like it’s small size, but I find it quite usable and since the Sony is mirrorless what I see through the viewfinder is what I get in my image.
