picturesque Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 <p>Thanks, Marc, but I'm not aggravated. Just scratching my head. I agree that one should be preapred for anything.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike grossman Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 <p>I just shot my first baptism today and this thread was very helpful. All I own are primes and I had thought about renting a 24-70/2.8 zoom. But, in the end, all I needed was my 35/2. The speed gave me great shots and the size made me less conspicuous than if I had a big zoon poking in the goings-on. Before shooting I asked the Priest if I could go in certain areas and I think he appreciated my concern.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William Michael Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 <p>What (format) camera, Mike?<br> ***<br> The 35F/2 is really handy IMO: it is small, (short) as you mentioned, which is really handy sometimes.</p> <p>WW</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike grossman Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 <p>I was using a Nikon D700. Was shooting up to ISO 2000 in the church with nice results.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William Michael Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 <p>Thanks.<br> I was especially curious about your experience, because of my experiences (which I outlined above): Baptism's here, are usually in tight quarters, a fast wider Prime has been my friend, more often than not.<br> Regards,<br> WW</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
