Hello!
I'm back again to ask for some more guidance before I take pictures at a wedding in a couple of weeks. Just a reminder, I am a complete amateur. The bride and groom asked me to do this because I'm the only person they know that uses a film SLR, so they seem to think that means I'm a pro. I'm just starting to learn the technical aspects of photography. I still don't even fully understand f-stops, focal length, etc... YIKES! :blush2:
I want to try to buy a new lens before the wedding, and I was hoping for some confirmation on the research that I've been doing. The wedding will be shot indoors, with very little light. I would like to be as mobile as possible so that I can (hopefully) get interesting shots from various angles during the ceremony. I started taking pictures with my uncle's old Canon and a 50mm lens (primarily shots of the mountains and the dogs during camping trips) so that's what I'm used to. I just bought a Nikon N80 with a Tamron 28/200 lens, which I'm still trying to get used to. From what I've read, I think I should be looking for something like a 28/70, 18/70, or perhaps even a 50mm that I can use with my new camera? Does this seem about right?
Thank you in advance for any advice!
