[QUOTE="kevy73, post: 744328, member: 23493"] Hey Elliot... a specialist wedding photographer here... Is your Sisters ceremony venue indoors or outdoors? I like the idea of your 15-50 f2.8 and I think you are on the money in getting the 50-200 f2.8 also. I never use flash during a daytime ceremony regardless of indoors or outdoors. I have only ever used "flash" during a ceremony once and that was because it was a night time wedding so I had no choice. I know you US folks do things differently over there, but here in Aust using flash during your ceremony is almost against the rules... I know that some Churches don't allow it regardless of how dark and dinghy it can get in them. Flash is reserved for the reception which here in Aust usually starts around 6pm and goes until midnight. My camera's are ALWAYS set to rear sync with the flash and I generally aim 45ish degrees up and have it set to TTL -0.7 or TTL -0.3 - ISO around the 1000 and shutter around the 100. F stop is usually around the 3.5 to make wide enough for couple shots. I usually shoot the 24-70 f2.8 and my 85f1.4 at the reception. Flash is ONLY on the 24-70, I shoot the 85 flashless and always at f1.4 - good for the sniper type shots where people don't even know you are taking them. Feel free to message back with any other questions or if something I wrote didn't make sense. [/QUOTE]
