Ok guys, so I´ve shot my first paid wedding last weekend (as a videographer) and I´ve got my mind set on shooting weddings on a more regular basis. While I look for another photographer with a similar style and objectives to partner up with, I want to go over gear to check if there is something missing or too much of:
Cameras
- Sony A7 (if the A7S ends up costing us$1800 I´ll replace my A7)
- Sony A6000
Acessories
- Flash
- 8 batteries (the A7 eats up battery, so I´m not sure if this is enough)
- A7 Grip (does anyone know if it will work on the A7S?)
- Shock and water proof sd card case
- Cleaning kit
- Portable tripod (I have an amazing mefoto that I love to death)
AF lenses (sadly Sony doesn´t have many fast primes or zooms)
FE 70-200 f4
FE 55mm f1.8
35mm f2.8
FE 16-35 f4 (when it comes out)
I was thinking of taking some manual lenses as backup if one of the AF lenses breaks, but since I plan to ALWAYS shoot weddings with another photographer, it may be overkill:
Canon FD 24-40mm f2.8 (f2.0)
Canon FD 50mm f1.4
Pentax 85mm f2.0
If I take the manual lenses too I would need a big bag to be able to carry everything .
So, what do you guys think?
