[QUOTE="Eyelight, post: 309074, member: 24753"] The perfect wedding camera would be the one that the Time Warp people use. If you had a couple of those, you'd never miss a shot.:) Imagine the shots you need to make in the space (width and length) you have to work with and this will tell what lenses you need. Wide angle enough to include: - the entire bridal party in one shot. - the beauty of the location in one shot. - the bride and her 40' train in one shot. - etcetera Telephoto enough to: - frame the bride's face from the distance you will be standing during the ceremony. - frame a face across the room during the reception. - etcetera Occurs to me as I write this that doing a wedding with a digital camera and the ability to fix the minor stuff with PS, is a walk in the park compared to using film where there is a 30 second film swap every 36 shots and sometimes the need to change film mid roll, to go to higher or lower film speed, plus the cost of processing, lab work and retouching. I'd think shoot some video if/when the shutter will be too much noise. [/QUOTE]
