So far I have had the cameras CLAed, and I have been taking pictures to get back into shape (These may show up online some day). But I have some questions. What should I use for film on the big day? I was planning on color negative, 35mm for most if not all of the shooting. The ceremony will be outdoors under a tent, mid-afternoon. The reception will be next door in a barnlike structure with windows. It will go from midafternoon to late evening. Do I want to use the Kodak pro films? Or are the consumer grade good enough? What about other than Kodak? Also, any suggested shots, or other hints from those more experienced in this type of shooting are appreciated. (except for do it all in medium format, or digital, because neither of those are possible). Thanks in advance. ============================================================================ Ken Firestone, W3CAT | For every problem there is one solution kenf@speakeasy.net | which is simple, neat, and wrong. ken@firestone.net | -- H.
