Re: Shooting Weddings with the Sony Alpha system

Re: Weddings

Re: Alpha Lens Rental + Wedding

I would recommend a 24 -70 lenses as this will cover most of what you need with a 70 200 for candids these are the only two lenses that I use other than a 12-24 for overall effect shots. Just remmember that its not the lenses that you have but the way that you use them that will make for great photos.
