Re: Canon lenses for weddings



Hi there,

I was at a wedding a couple of weeks ago and the official photographer
was using a 24-70mm f2.8L on a 20D and a 70-200mm f2.8L on a 1D.

I used my 28-70mm f2.8L on my 10D and found it good for most things,
however at times it wasn't wide enough nor long enough. Concluded
that for a single lens in the same situation, my 28-135 would have
been better, and that what the official photographer used was probably
ideal.
