Hello there,
I realise I may be going into the lion's den here!
Advice sorely needed
My colleague at work is getting married.
Pro stuff e.g. stills and video is taken care of.
They would like me to hover a bit and try to capture anything the pro's might miss e.g. candids etc. How good the Pro's are - I don't know.
I have been to the venue and asked the staff to give me the "reception" lighting, which they most kindly did - large space, very well lit.
These are the only lenses that I have available under F2.0 max.
FA 43mm F1.9
F 50 F1.7
"A" 50 F1.4
FA 77mm F1.8
I've played around at home trying to simulate the lighting I will experience and the lenses coped well
However, I want to travel light - My wife and I want to drink a few beers and mingle and enjoy the evening.
My preferred option is:
K20D - Pentax FA 43mm + Fa 77mm.
But I found in the freezer a roll of Kodak Gold ASA 400. I might just use that with my MZ-S and one of the Limiteds as a back up.
Photos will focus mainly on the happy couple, but I'm sure others will want to get in on the action when they are looser. Do I need wider?
Any suggestions about anything would be welcome. I'm stressed even though my friend asked me to do it as a favour.
Cheers.
Rod Worth.
