I shot a friends band while I was in Kyoto.

The band is called Based on Kyoto.

The lens was the 35 1.4

It is just one long handheld shot, no brace or mount just the body and lens, all under 1000 ISO

Manual controls would be very nice.

It looks a bit compressed on Vimeo.
 
Wow, looks nice. The camera definitely did a good job in this low light situation, and nice to see that it worked this well under 1000 ISO.

If I may ask a couple questions, how bright were the projectors when compared to normal stage lighting? I'm not familiar with the standard wattage of video projectors. Did you convert frame rate or color correct this clip or is this the raw footage straight from the camera?
 
Projectors are pretty bright when they are focused on a person, like the singer. I don't know how they compare to typical stage lighting but I know that when I shot Soft in Tokyo it was in a club with real stage lighting and I could get lower ISOs.

The footage is straight from cam. There is very little noise/compression artifacts in the original footage. I usually shoot video with my HPX500 and the low light footage from the 5DMII is very impressive to me.
