| Heh, I was just at a wedding and I brought my camera just because. I come to find out that the wedding photographer that hey asked to shoot the wedding DID have a P&S, albeit a zoom one, I think it was a Sony Cybershot or something. It was a real small scale low budget wedding so I was smart to bring my camera just in case, plus I never travel w/o it. I never shot a wedding or intend to ever again but this was a good experiance.
I mainly used the 16-50mm for all of the group shots and what not, but I did use the 50-135mm as well for some creative shooting and close-ups from a distance. Get the 16-50mm just to make sure that you can do all of the group shots and poses and get everyone in there, but I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND you also get a flash!
I used the AF540FGZ, the swivel head came in handy, but if you cant get that just yet, get the AF360FGZ and a swivel arm, even at f/2.8 you're gonna need it, but you are most likely NOT going to want to shoot at f/2.8, I think I did the whole thing at f/4 at ISO 200 or 400, cant remember.
And of course, PRACTICE!! I was being paid to do this shoot I would of been sued I am sure. |
