Ok so this fall I am going to be shooting my first wedding. Ive done portrait stuff and I know my way around the camera very well. I am not worried about my performance because of that and they aren't expecting much. The main reason I am shooting is for still candid shots to go into the video.
My main questiong is what equipement will i need for the wedding. you can read what I have right now in my sig. I know that a 18-70 2.8 vr, 70-200 2.8 vr, 12-24mm, 10.5mm fisheye, 100mm macro, d200, 2 4gb flash, sb-600 speedlight ect ect would be optimal but I just dont have that kind of $. I am looking at getting a d80 with the 18-200mm vr, sb-600 speed light, and a couple flash cards. Is there anything that I should get instead of this. Will I be able to do a reasonable job with the lens. The only thing I'm worried about is that it doesn't have the fixed aperture and it doesn't go down to 2.8. But unless I really squeeze i cant get the 18-70 2.8.
I don't know I would just be interested in hearing some pros opinions.
