[QUOTE="kluisi, post: 273960, member: 17548"] I would think that if you're planning to shoot the zoom any wider than 50mm, then the 50mm would be the way to go. You would be able to use the larger aperture, a higher shutter speed, and/or a lower ISO. I would have thought the only reason to use the zoom would have been if you need the extra 35mm reach above 50mm. Other than a possible wide angle shot of the church or something like that, I would think that most of the shots would have been zoomed in tight on the parents/godparents/baby and shooting wide would just mean more extreme cropping in post. Still kind of a NEWB here, but what does shooting the zoom wide buy you? [/QUOTE]
