Hello, I am preparing to get back into doing weddings after several years of "down time" and am needing to buy new gear for my setup this Spring/Summer (I wont be shooting till next year though) and I wanted to bounce my list off you all and see what suggestions you may have for me.
I currently own a Nikon D80 and I'm looking at either getting a D7000 or D700 and using my D80 as a second or maybe getting the D700 and upgrading my D80 to the D7000 as a second.
If I go with the D7000 as my main and D80 as my second I'm thinking:
Nikkor 17mm-55mm f/2.8G ED-IF AF-S DX (main)
Nikkor 70-200mm f-2.8G AF-S VR II Zoom-Nikkor ED-IF (second)
Nikkor 50mm f/1.4G AF-S (for formal portraits)
2 Nikon SB-900s and White Lightning Studio Lights for portraits
If I go with the D700 as my main and D7000/D80 as my second I'm thinking:
Nikkor 24-70mm f/2.8G ED-IF AF-S (main)
Nikkor 70-200mm f-2.8G AF-S VR II Zoom-Nikkor ED-IF (second?)
Nikkor 85mm f/1.8D AF (for formal portraits)
2 Nikon SB-900s and White Lightning Studio Lights for portraits
Thank you for your time
