Thanks for the replies folks. I must say that I would never again shoot a wedding without a backup body. I would just hate to ruin someones special day. Imagine having to tell the happy couple that...

A couple weeks ago I shot over 700 pics at a wedding. Camera worked great all day long. I was too tired to look at the pics when I got home so I went to bed and the next morning I grabbed the 30D to...

Thanks BYNX. They look much better after you fixed them up. On the ethics issue, I have full permission of the couple. :)

Thanks alot Esoterra and Rooz. Yes, this was a difficult shoot. Very bright sun and heavy shade. I did not have a reflector, but sure wish I did. Camera store didnt have one and it was too late to...

This is the result of my first wedding shoot last Saturday. I shot over 700 pics in a 12 hour period. I will give 480 pics to the Bride and Groom. I did it as a freebie so that I could get some...

I cant say Im anywhere near an authority on this, but I have spent several days on this. See my pics at the top of this thread. I used two 250 watt light bulbs as well as my 430ex flash. Im not...

Is it OK to ask a subject to remove their glasses for a picture?? I find that the glare can really spoil a good shot. Can you ask a bride ot groom to remove them for a shoot?? Would they be...

Sorry if this has been asked, I did search with no results. What can I use to clean the lenses I have. All have filters on them Its the filters I want to clean without removing them from the camera....

Is it possible to get a lower ISO on the 30D or is 100 the lowest. I ask because I have seen photos with an ISO as low as 64 but dont think it was a Canon product.

thanks

Thanks Chuck. I have been trying this some more over the past few days. Over 400 hundred shots but am getting better. One problem has been the focus. I dont have that part of it yet, but am...

OK, Ive been fooling around with this for a few hours. This is a typical result. Can anyone give opinions on this so I can improve. Camera settings.

Speed 1/250
Aperature 8.0
Manual focus...

Can you give any tips on focus?? Im using my 90mm Macro. I just cant get the focus right. Im having a very difficult and frustrating time getting the focus on the "glare" on the water from the...

Man, I dont even have the words to describe how beautiful this is. Stunning to say the least. Im gonna give this a go too.

For weddings I try to look good but sorta casual at the same time. No need for tie and jacket, you are there to work. I wear dress pants and a shirt as well as a fishermans vest (the kind with many...

Canadian Geese dont like Herons. I wish I was more ready for this shot though. Would have been much better

Both my cats. One a Domestic Longhair, the other a Flamepoint Himalayan

Yes. I have "only" the 30D. Its very new and I dont expect any trouble with it. Or should I?? :eek:

I am about to purchase another lens. It will be my primary lens used mainly for wedding shoots Please give me your opinion on these 2 lenses. I know they are good, but are they good for wedding...

Was lucky enough to get this Heron

Just a flower I took the other day

Ok, edited the original post with shoot info. No, no filter was used. Lens is the Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6, the lens that came with the camera when I bought it. As I understand it in Tv mode the...

This is my first attempt at shooting light trails. I know its not very good, but just a practice shot. How do I get rid of the "star" effect around street lights?? Do I need a filter of some sort?? ...
