I usually will take a DSLR to a wedding, but will not try to copy what the pro is doing, and I will always try to be conscious of not stealing his shot. On one occasion the few shots I took were the only half-way decent ones taken on the day! I think if you are courteous and considerate of the pro, the other guests and the location's rules it is ok.

Here's a survey question... as an invited guest at a wedding, do you bring your dslr? A good friend of mine got married this weekend... I almost didn't bring it, but in the end, I threw the k-5 & FA 50 in my purse "just in case" I wanted it later.... It's funny territory, I think. There's a pro on hand to capture the day. Yet, the number of cell phone and p&s cams being held aloft in the pews is almost comical... On the other hand, maybe the dslr seems a bit much? I mean, you don't want to be Uncle Harry, elbowing the pro out of the way to get your shot of the happy couple... Hmm. Maybe the K-01 (in white, of course) for this type of occasion would be appropriate. I'll have to see if it fits in an evening bag... :) -c http://www.flickr.com/photos/23028562@N04/6967449816/in/photostream/ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
