Why You Need These Lenses On A Wedding.

I'm grabbing one of the most requested Skribit questions, "What's the best recommendations of lenses to use at a wedding?" Well, first, let me say, "It kind of depends on your budget." So dear reader, let me start with the basic set-up and move up to the exotic and pricey options.
Let's talk cameras first. Regardless of whether you are a Canon or Nikon shooter, I would be choosing one of the models with the APS-C sensor size. I'm a Canon shooter and love the Canon 40D. If I were a Nikon shooter, I'd definitely be looking at the new D300. Nikon has finally got pretty darn close to Canon in the low noise area with their new D3 and D300 series of cameras. Why do I love the APS-C size sensors? Because basically I'm cheap. What's the #1 characteristic of photographers? We are all CHEAP...... 'nough said here.
