Richard and James ask,
"What is your gear bag? What is in it and why do you choose to have those lenses in it?"
I'm schlepping my gear around in a Tamrac Big Wheels Rolling StrongBox-LP2 Camera Case. It houses two Canon 5D bodies, 4-5 lenses, pocket wizards, a couple 580 EX flash units, a 17" MacBook Pro and various knick-knacks. Great for flying.
I use my Canon 35mm f/1.4 and my 50mm f/1.2 the most. They give me a close enough feel to my subject while producing good bokeh. By shooting close to my subjects, the viewer becomes the extra element in the photos often times...as if you were there.

Interesting post Fred.. Would be nice to hear how you use your cameras and lenses during a wedding. Is there enough time to change between the prime lenses? Or do you use a prime on one camera and a zoom on the other? Greetings from Germany : )

Amy <<< I am not sure if I am interested in buying the 5D MK II...I have my eye on the Mark III 1Ds because of certain features like 40+ AF points, more frames/second and other features that cater to my shooting style.
