Re: F/Stops for Wedding photographers
Hi Tommyqh
I am pro wedding and fashion photographer since 1999. Now, I am using a pro film body Canon 1VHS and 5D body with lenses from 15 fisheye for unique perspective to 70-200f2,8 L IS for catching the "atmosphere" of event.
I am not scared to shoot wide open but also you must consider other setings depending on light conditions.In that case You should know Your equipment well.
For example:
15 @ f2,8 will destroy any zoom wide open but You should not overdo with this lens!
50 f1,4 @ 2-3,5 great results
85 f1,2 L II @ 1,2-1,8 Unique DOF but be carefull...Shallowness, etc.
135 f2 L @ 2 is sharper then 70-200 @ 2,8 but can miss "the moment"
16-35 f2.8 L II @ 2,8-8 (sharp inough in center @ 2,8) very useable lens in pair with 135 or 70-200 for more impresive perspective.
24-70 L @ 2,8-4 but mostly f3,5 for IQ of prime 50
70-200 f2,8 L IS @ 2,8-3,5 so called "my precious" lens allways do fine!
I hope this will be of useable info but remeber, Do Not lay on my personal opinion and my shooting style.... I live in almost perfect weather conditions.
For end of writing watch the power of 85 L @ 1,2... Isn't she a creamy princess?
