[QUOTE="rocketman122, post: 260358, member: 14443"] good luck buddy. Im sure your mind is racing thinking about all the small things. only thing I will say, dont be shy with the shutter button. youd be surprised how some situations you think you got the pic you wanted then chimp through & realize even after multiple shots, you dont even have one useable one! and its not because you arent talented. there are so many factors to calculate. shoot like crazy. better get more than less. you can also get quantity and quality. use that 85 for a few pictures. its just an amazing lens. the 70-200 is hard to work with if you have no space-minimum 4.5' as far as dance shots go, getting good shots is very hard. a lot of anticipating, a lot of missed shots. high shutter speed, not enough light. I would say its one of the hardest to do well. speed with low light. doesnt go well. just be prepared, if they lift the BG on chairs or even they throw the groom in the air. many weddings, they take a huge tablecloth and use the firefighter circle and throw him in the air. you have to be lightning quick and anticipate. not sure how crazy it gets in oz but over here, they get CRAZY. its hilarious and tests your reflexes. I love being in all the middle of the hassle. people dancing and elbowing you every so often haha. we have wedding with 400 guests. just put your camera on silent so you wont be bothered with calls during shooting haha!
