In answer to your "survey" question; mmmm..no. In the case of a good friend, I'd subtly reaffirm that you're still "into" it, but are hesitant to bring along your SLR so as not to appear to be competing with the pro. The next comment must then come from the friend. If you hear only crickets, leave it home..

Here's a survey question... as an invited guest at a wedding, do you bring your dslr? A good friend of mine got married this weekend... I almost didn't bring it, but in the end, I threw the k-5 & FA 50 in my purse "just in case" I wanted it later.... It's funny territory, I think. There's a pro on hand to capture the day. Yet, the number of cell phone and p&s cams being held aloft in the pews is almost comical... On the other hand, maybe the dslr seems a bit much? I mean, you don't want to be Uncle Harry, elbowing the pro out of the way to get your shot of the happy couple... Hmm. Maybe the K-01 (in white, of course) for this type of occasion would be appropriate. I'll have to see if it fits in an evening bag... :) -c http://www.flickr.com/photos/23028562@N04/6967449816/in/photostream/ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
