What was your ISO at if you remember?
They needed lots of fill light...yikes. Had you been there before to see how it was to be arranged?
That's always the worst part. You know you could do better and the client is so truly in love with em. I took prom pics for my coworker's sister and I did good but I still gave her a free session cause I wasn't satisfiedI showed the family the photos posted on here and they're in love... Ultimately, thats what matters, but I'm not thrilled with about 80% of the photos
I've been using the Sony NEX 7 with the 18-55mm lens since its release in 2012 and I'm looking to add a few more lenses. What would you guys suggest I look for? I have no problem with using adapters for the e mount.
tbh, I'm really looking to expand more to telephoto as well as find a different normal lens to use. The 18-55 is a good lens but isn't the most ideal to use with the NEX. In regards to Lightroom, I just installed it a few weeks ago and I haven't really gotten around to it. I honestly haven't been paying much attention to the aperture and focal lengths, just been look to get the best shot and keep it movingas you may know, via adapters you can fit just about any lens on your mirrorless camera, so the question is what do you (or want to) shoot primarily? that should help you figure out which lenses may help you in that realm? do you most like to shoot normal, telephoto, or wide? plan to move to full frame? if you are using lightroom or some other cataloging program, you can also look at you favorite images to see what aperture & focal length they were shot and use that as a guide or alternatively just looking at the focal lengths you aren't using?I've been using the Sony NEX 7 with the 18-55mm lens since its release in 2012 and I'm looking to add a few more lenses.

Gotcha, I've been looking at my pictures recently and the range has been between 25 and 35. I'm gonna look into something starting in that range moving forwarddefinitely not saying the best shot is dictated by the apertures or focal lengths you have used, but, for example, if you looked at your some of your best shots & found that most of them were taken around certain focal lengths, that might help you decide on where to spend your money in terms of lenses...tbh, I'm really looking to expand more to telephoto as well as find a different normal lens to use.

Is a swivel screen worth the extra money?
Debating between a D3300 & D5300 at the moment
If you shoot video its definitely worth it.
Both are very good cameras.
Which do yous think is better, Canon- EOS Rebel SL1 DSLR Camera with 18.55mm IS STM Lens or Canon Rebel TS DSLR Camera with 18.55mm and 75-300mm Lens? Thanks
Appreciate that. Would you still go with that over the Nikon.D3300 Digital SLR with 18-55mm G VR DX II AF-S LENS?I'd go with more lenses.
18-55 and 75-300 is a huge range of focal lengths that will allow you to experiment and figure out what / how you like shooting.
Once you figure that out, you'll be able to make a better choice on what is next.
Whoa 3200 ISO. I get nervous when I get to 1600. Have you looked into another light source. Possibly a Gary Fong Diffuser for your flash?What was your ISO at if you remember?
They needed lots of fill light...yikes. Had you been there before to see how it was to be arranged?
The entire family formals were done at ISO 3200.
Using a full frame camera makes the noise significantly less abundant... Still not even close to ideal.
Never been to the venue before getting there on the wedding day... They had to have formals done AFTER the ceremony so we couldnt even go outside because the wedding took place after sunset.
I warned them of the lighting situation about 100 times prior to the wedding date and throughout the wedding.
I showed the family the photos posted on here and they're in love... Ultimately, thats what matters, but I'm not thrilled with about 80% of the photos

Ok. Which brand would you say is better, Nikon or Canon? Thanks for the helpAt that point, its really up to your budget. Assuming you own no other DSLR equipment.
At the entry level, its more important to pick your brand and just stick with it. That way, you can grow with it.
For example, lets say u cop a canon rebel and u have a few lenses and u wanna go to the next level, copping a full frame canon DSLR will allow you to use the majority of your lenses going forward. Same if you pick Nikon or Sony, etc.
Another factor is if you have friends who you're going to shoot with. If you have a buddy who is a photographer and they have 12 Nikon lenses... might be good to cop a nikon and hang out with them to get your hands wet with some other glass.
Just some things to think about.
