I keep promising I won't do this anymore, but I shot another wedding
yesterday.
The groom was my across the street neighbour for a couple of years, and is
one of the finer people I know.

I shot the entire job on the ist D, which I found very fun. I used to have
to watch how much film I went through, especially at the church, so that I
owuldn't be caught changing either film or camera body at an inopportune
moment. Having a 1 gig card and shooting in jpeg fine mode allows in excess
of 400 shots, though I only shot just over half that amount.

I used the A35mm f/2 for the bulk of the shooting, and the A50mm f/1.2 for
some of the portraits.
The 20mm and 77mm saw some use, but not much.
The nearly 20 year old Metz works just fine on the new camera, exposures are
consistent, though I thought slightly overexposed, so I dialed in -1/2 stop
of exposure compensation, which seemed to do what I wanted.
Anyway, if you want a laugh, check out:
