Now, I cant wait to shoot a wedding with it.
That Da* 50-135 seems to be a gem for wedding for sure. I had done a few assistant photographer jobs and prime lenses are only good for set up wedding photography.
With reception or casual shots around the church ceremony, I would rather stick to a zoom. Especially with something like 50-135mm, no second thought!
However, I did not feel D40 any pro level at all. k10d produces nicer images by comparison (I tried out D40 at a city store on the weekend - did not convince to grab a copy at all; I hooked on my 85 f1.2L and 50 f1.2L on the 40D, taking protraits on the salesman in the stores... I would patiently wait for pentax to release its own succesors to k10d )
