Never tried it. What kind of concert? I would try these Scene settings in this order:

1) Night Portrait
2) Handheld Twilight
3) Party
4) Fireworks

Don't think I'll be attending any concerts soon, so hope you can come back and share with us which one works best  brows.gif

fireworks is not suitable for concert.. fireworks is delay the shutter speed and long exposure.. its try to absorb light and capture fireworks photo nicely or others. i will attach a sample of fireworks at this post below..


for concert i would like suggest use normal mode and manual adjust ISO400-800 depend lighting condition, adjust exposure as well.. adjust the setting to your desired and acceptable level..

Hey, that's really neat. I didn't know the fireworks setting did that. At least it didn't with my wife's Xperia Z. I personally haven't tested it on my Z1. However though, he was asking about scenes. I personally would tinker with ISO as well.. thumbup.gif

i'm waiting the tripod for my phone and i will spend my time for shooting too.. recently quite interested on shooting..

to capture the good photo, must find the right objects and right angle. cannot simply capture on anything like that..

night scene and handheld twilight must need tripod or u need to have steady hand.. recommend to set timer 1st if want use this scene.. after press then steadyback your hand well..

indeed most of the phone and even digital camera or dslr also cant do well in low light condition as daylight..

for daylight, nowadays most of the phone done very well in details, colour.. Z1 and Note 3..

Samsung done better in sharpen of photos.. Sony over proccessing photo.. but still acceptable..

we need phone to capture the daily photo and share onto facebook. Facebook will compressed it even in High Quality mode. so just same.. as long as colour, focus are correct.. then should be ok for most users..

but like jloi said.. to test out the full capable of camera, need special deep review and experiment.. each auto mode from each brand are different from focus, ISO, exposure level, white balance.. really hard to determine.. in the end, just depend on user preference..

Currently using note 3. Is it worth to chge to z1?

Benefit?
And other than losing spen what needs to consider?

Actually both are diff categories but both are good phone nowadays.. Since u decided to buy note 3, I think it can survive for few years. Z1 got 1 benefit is water resistant.. U may capture underwater photo which other people can't do.

QUOTE(benny888 @ Oct 13 2013, 11:32 AM)
I suggest you listen to only users who had used both phones.  There are plenty of smart alecs in forum lowyat who knows how to comment just based on specs and what they read on the web.

Indeed.. Or take own note 3 and go sony centre there do a comparison.

ohh so that's how it works.. data still works for white listed apps..
what about fb messenger? if white list only the messenger but without fb apps? does it still prompt?
*
Yes u can still receive the fb msg if u whitelist fb messenger.. Like me whitelist Line and Messenger only.. I can't receive whatsapp msg while screen off after a period.. Until I turn on screen only receive it.. Stamina mode tend to disable the apps while in screen off. Really good..

Probably the photo size is too big.. Me also can't add the attachment if it's larger than 2mb..
