Advice on what lens to use for ROM shoot?

[trenyi]

hi,

Anyone can give advice on what lens will be suitable for shooting during ROM as i will be taking one tomorrow so i will appreciate if anyone here can give some useful advice for example during the signing of the documents in the room and also outside.:think: Thanks

I would use a WA glass.

But it's too late now, you should use whatever glass you're comfortable with because if you use a new glass now, and you don't understand the capabilities of the glass you will not achieve your goal.

Cheers.

A range from 24mm to 70mm (after multiple by 1.6x, 1.5x or 1.3x) would be better choice.

A 28-70mm range is sufficient for most weddings, be it solemnization or church ceremony. Get a good one and it should be able to handle your macro duties as well.

WA = wide-angle

Wow seems like you have quite a no. of lens man! :bigeyes:

Anyway WA i guess should be Wide Angle. Your 17-40mm lens should be gd enough I think.

you have such an arsenal of lens. shld make gd use of it :think: .

17-40mm with a flashgun will help u cover the ROM.

U can also bring along 100mm f2.8 macro to take close up of the wedding rings, marriage certs... a dash of rose pedals on the cert with the rings on it will give a wonderful effect.
my 2-cent thought

Go with the 17-40mm f/4L and an external flash. You should do fine.

Use a wide angle zoom, like the Canon 17-40 L. But if you're first time doing, do be careful. Let the couple know first you're a first-timer.

Have fun!
