[QUOTE="Elliot87, post: 744379, member: 25183"] [USER=23493]@kevy73[/USER] Thanks very much for the feedback and valuable information! The wedding venue is indoors, a traditional Church. I have checked and they have not put any limitations on using flash etc. however I would much prefer to go without it or keep use to the bare minimum as I don't want to be a distraction. The more I can go unnoticed the better. My only concern is that my D7100 body is far from the best at handling low light, 1600 ISO is usually the max I go too and even then IQ is suffering quite a bit. When the new lens arrives I will practice lots and see what the pairing is capable of, with and without the flash. As it stands with Covid restrictions, I'm not even sure there will be a reception to speak of following the wedding, but there will be at some point next year and no doubt I'll be taking pictures. Your advice with settings for using flash is much needed and appreciated! I am still not 100% sure if I will get a second lens for the shoot but if I do I'm leaning towards a portrait length prime. Of course an 85 f1.4 would be ideal but I may compromise and look at a 105mm macro lens, as although the 2.8 aperture will not be ideal, it is something I will get much more use from long term. THe Sigma 105mm with OS is top of my list right now but I need to research my options a lot more. No doubt I will have some more questions once I start using the new gear. Many thanks! [/QUOTE]
