Question! I hope you can answer soon hahaha i have a wedding this saturday. I’m a videographer but got booked in for photography. My prime is only 85mm f1.8 and 24-70 f2.8 for another camera. Is that more than enough? Flash, i bought V1 and ad200 pro. You reckon i use the V1 with the 24-70 and off flash set up for the 85mm? they’ll be doing a sparkler machine when they come in and dance, i don’t need flash for that right? Lastly, white balance during reception, entrance (sparkler machine) and dance, do I have to put it in AWB or a little warm? Any advice would be appreciated 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 i have been binge watching all your BTS since last week! Hahah
An 85 and 24-70 are more than enough to shoot a wedding. I use my V1 on camera for most of my flash work at a wedding. I use an AD200 with an umbrella off camera for family formals. It's not a bad idea to use off camera flash with the 85, however, I usually just use a 35 & 50 when I'm shooting with flash. I always use flash for the sparkler machine. In my experience it turns out better this way. As for white balance, I set my camera to the flash white balance setting - that has worked well for me! Hope this helps and thanks for watching!
@@fortemke THANK YOU!!! 🙏🏼 I might just use the 24-70 during reception. Last question if you dont mind. All Sparkler machine pretty much have the same settings, you reckon 1/128 on the v1 and a little low iso settings? Reason im asking is i dont get to have another take on this one so just trying to follow any general rule when it comes to this 😅 or.. i have strong portable bi-color light, i might just use that when they come in and dont use flash during. Ahhhh im panicking hahaahah
@@715series Depending on the ceiling height, I end up using 1/32 or 1/16 a lot for those types of sparklers. If you miss the shot, you can purchase overlays online of cold sparklers and put them in the photo. It takes a while, but no one can tell the difference.
I’m just curious what do you think about z7II autofocus. How does it work for you in dark environments and tricky lights? Can you compare it to Lumix af system? Do you use bbf in af-c mode all the time?
I had much better success with the S5ii in terms of autofocus. Z7ii does not preform well in low light. I shoot the majority of the time in Single point Single focus
