Hi,

 

I shoot weddings, and with regards to light availability, they almost always

fall into a mix of daylight + nightlight + artificial light(indoor lighting).

I currently use the 24-105 L series USM lens, but find it restricting even

after using the image stabilizer and a larger ISO (too much grain). Would some

one who shoots weddings (successfully) under low light please share the lenses

they use? Bouncing flash doesnt always work well, for me atleast. I am

thinking of going with the prime 85mm f1.2 L series lens to use after

acceptable daylight ends. The darn thing is close to USD2000. Thoughts?

 

Thanks,

Sachin

I used them for film processing a while back and wasnt much impressedwith the prints. Now that I shoot digital, I guess I could try them.

Hi,

 

Can anyone here point me to a good professional lab in/around Northern VA?

Bhargav in the earlier post pointed me to a few of which Penn Camera is in my

vicinity, but I didnt like them as much. Noneonetheless I appreciate your

response to the post Bhargav.

 

Thanks in advance,

Thank you for the pointers, Bhargav.

Hi,

 

For the lack of a better category I am posting this question here. If its

inappropriate here, please let me know an appropriate category.

 

I have a canon eos 30d, a canon powershot s2 is and a nikon n75 (a film slr).

How can I get b/w infra-red images from either of these cameras without

actually modifying their sensors? My preference would be to use either of the

two canons I have simply because I wont have to wait to get any film developed

to see the results.

 

Thanks in advance.

I currently own a Nikon SLR system, a canon powershot s2is and more recently a canon 30d with L series lenses. Of the 3 the canon SLR system is my favorite. Over all good image quality and good focus is how I would describe 30d. If augmented by L series IS lenses, you are looking at almost a professional system. Just my 2 cents. Regards.
