THE BEST Wedding Photography Kit - Film & Digital

[@TonyWodarck]

What do you think I’m missing from my kit? Drop a comment below.

[@ourdaysgoby]

so you drop 85mm out of your kit? what your recommendation RF 85 f2 or EF 85 1.4 L or RF 85 1.2

[@TonyWodarck]

@@ourdaysgoby my suggestion will always be the best native lens you can afford. Meaning the RF 85 1.2 is going to be the best if you can afford it. If I had to choose between the RF 85 f2 and EF 85 1.4L I'd choose RF just because the close minimum focal distance.

[@ourdaysgoby]

@@TonyWodarck Tks man, probably will go with f2 then.

The photos I capture on my Pentax 67 on a wedding day are nearly always my favorites. It just makes me so much more intentional with every shot I take. It sure gets heavy though after few hours though, and reloading it can be a pain as well

[@TonyWodarck]

Yep totally. Not a light camera at all but to me it provides the most beautiful looking photo that stands apart from everything else. That huge negative and beautiful look of the 105 is just a magical look you can’t replicate anywhere else. I rarely attach my Pentax 67 to my straps and just hand carry it for specific parts of the day.

At one time, I used three Mamiya medium format TLR cameras (C3, C22, and C220) with the following lenses: 180mm f/4.5 80mm f/2.8 55mm f/4.5 When it was time for me to replace my worn-out wedding cameras and lenses, I replaced them with two Mamiya RB67 medium format SLR cameras and the following lenses: 180mm f/4.5 90mm f/3.8 50mm f/4.5 Now, I rarely shoot film at weddings.

That Canon RF 70-200/2.8 is one of the most compelling reasons to choose the R series. SO small!

[@TonyWodarck]

It’s such an insane and versatile lens. I love the 85 and the 135 but the versatility and the beauty of the 70-200 is unbeatable. I’ve been using it for more commercial product photography too and it’s a beast.

[@TonyWodarck]

And happy birthday dude! 🎂 🥳

[@jcpatts]

Super sick. Love our R6s, but feeling like I’d like the ability to crop more if needed with an R5. Those 67 shots are dope!

[@TonyWodarck]

Yeah I haven’t used the R5 much but I had a second shoot with it and I wasn’t super blown away by it.

[@dehartmba7220]

Why are you not shooting with film anymore? In your previous video you used between 25 to 30 rolls of film? Is it the cost, speed, look, etc..?

[@TonyWodarck]

It all depends on the couple. If they love film I’ll shoot a bunch. Shot 25 rolls last weekend. If they don’t care I’ll shoot more digital. It’s not the cost holding me back from shooting film, it’s really the speed and end result. Film always looks better but with the color profiles I use (The Archetype Process) and their custom film grain the digital files can look very nice. I also love shooting with the Leica Q2 a lot which is digital and the Canon R6 is so easy and amazing to use it’s made digital enjoyable.

[@ramiroponce-xz4qj]

hi. you dont talk about what film you use and why. i ve saw the portra 400 and a b and w film. but you dont talked about it. thak you

[@TonyWodarck]

Portra 400 and Tri-X 400. I use them cause they’re super versatile in all types of light and beautiful looking.

[@swidrakco]

But where did you get the shirt in the thumbnail…..

[@TonyWodarck]

Good eye. That’s the Roark Jamie Thomas collection. Banger.

[@cassielombaard9415]

What light stands do you fly with?

[@TonyWodarck]

Manfrotto 1051BAC 83" Air they’re great!

[@vitaliyturovskyy9122]

Where is 1V gone

[@TonyWodarck]

I upgraded all my canon lenses to RF. Which means no EF glass. Which meant no use for the 1V anymore unfortunately.

[@jasonmarkharris]

Are you using you q2 for the dance floor or do you have another wide lens for the canon? TIA

[@jasonmarkharris]

I saw your next Leica Q2 vid ;)

[@TonyWodarck]

All Leica Q2 for the dancing.

[@jasonmarkharris]

@@TonyWodarck been dreaming of a Leica q2 for a while now.. the single card slot always worries me. So hoping the q3 has internal memory and isn’t much more expensive 😉

[@TonyWodarck]

@@jasonmarkharris A fair concern. I just make sure to always use high quality SD cards, always start with a formatted card, and the Q2 isn't the only camera I use throughout a wedding day.

[@jasonmarkharris]

@@TonyWodarck tbh I never thought about the fact that the second body could be a back up even though a different focal length. I am really considering the Fuji gfx100s atm but I just don’t want 100mp files lol. Those r6’s look great too. I shoot fuji atm
