when i took my pre-wedding, as i know, there are few photogs and they using dif gear, C and N...too bad no SONY. and there is no problem on the studio lighting provided by the the studio, maybe the studio provide the transmitter to the photog...

and they don use multiple flash....all studio lighting...

btw, is the photog's duty to convert from RAW to JPG and adjust WB, level, BnW ++.. the designer only do skin touch up and designing task

i got a fren studio (covers weddings, products shots etc) ... all nikon kaki not because they play with brand or what, but easy to manage and can cut cost . you don't have to worry too much on converters / adpaters. everybody can use any equipment smile.gif without too much hassle.

anyway in the end is the end product that matters for the clients. if combo or single unit brand which ever path you take can complete the task i think it ok .

I vote to have two bodies when covering events/weddings.

+ Not really need "often" to swap lens. reduce chance of dust etc.
+ 1 camera body as a backup system.yes you may have two photog.. but lets say 1 photog is with the girl side and the other photog with guy side...and they about 60km apart smile.gif .
+ If got two bodies just need to carry 1 flash actually...can swap the flash faster than lens. 1 more spare flash in the bag/car.

for weddings, if got budget this is my dream setup :

a ff body , a aps-c body , 16-35mm , 24-70mm , 70-200 f2.8 and 50mm macro,
several flash with multi gel

ps: doesn't mean i have to carry all the equipment on my body. ask assistant / fren / gf to jaga la smile.gif

Which is why I find it weird and impractical for people recommending to use 20mm and 50mm combo on wedding and best part on a APC-S body?

20mm on APS-C is not wide and not tele, and certainly this is an awful lens to shoot family portrait.

50mm on the other hand is quite long esp on APS-C and experienced wedding shooters should know that wedding usually very cramped and most of the time you will be using short ranged lens as there will be a lot of people blocking your view like what soulfly had mentioned

Also, on cropped sensor bodies, most of the wedding shooters will be using 17-50/55 range combo with 10-22 or something nearby and not ALL will be using 24-70 range. 24-70 is more suitable on full frame bodies.

To me, the amount of time used to change the flash = amount of time to change lens or it could be more due to you need to tune your flash when you switch the body and need to tune other settings as well compared to everything set on one body. smile.gif
*
yup for settings... hope to get advanced type of bodies that can save presets settings on what i wanted smile.gif
