I need some feedback.
ThinkTank Pro Speed Belt + Skin 5-piece Set vs Newswear Medium Photographer Chestvest
Cost:
ThinkTank Combo = $258
Newswear = Approx $200
Pros:
ThinkTank Combo is modular, can remove pockets if not needed.
Newswear is like a vest with weight evenly spread out.
Cons:
ThinkTank Combo all the weight on my waist. Equipment need to pack in a seperate camera bag and only setup on-site.
Newswear can just pack the equipment needed. But pockets are fixed.

think tank is the way to go. i hv been using TT even before it came to our shore.
Oh. That's something different.
I also think that TT is flexible.
Btw, the above clip is too long. What I want you all to see is actually this cut clip...

ok la.. day time everyone's busy.. night time probably more active??
btw, guys, any advice for my noob actual wedding event this sat - no worries, not the official one, being a 2nd photographer. :embrass:
I'm still to and fro on whether i should rent equipment (meaning spend money) or i should work within the limits of my current gears. I'm doing FOC la, the couple and the main photog are my friends, thus able to just tag along.
Its going be a morning (bride and groom's house, church and dinner @ hotel).
Church not VERY big but can sit say300-400 (just the lower floor, excluding 2nd floor), high ceiling.
My current set up is just my 450Dw grip, 10-22, 24-105, 50 f/1.8, kit, 430EXII. I think there will always be "the" gear set up for such events, but i'm just thinking if with the idea of just someone going in to learn, should i get myself some decent gears or should i accept limitations of my current ones and just make do?
Had previous experiences shooting in my church and were quite frustrated with the lightings and all (basically, lens not fast enough, ISO handling of camera is really CMI, and flash not too helpful if want to capture with background surrounding lightings also). Or am i not learning to adjust and adapt to the environment?
ahh. advices please????? :sweat:

You already have a decent lens setup. You may wish to rent a 40D/50D and a 580EX MKI/II.
No worries. You can flash however you want in wedding. Haha! But some moments are no flash.
You need to understand the lighting and surrounding of the homes and hotel instead.
I just shot (FOC) my friend's holy matrimony with 450D + 24-105 + 430EX II at Swissotel Merchant Court. Shot FOC becos I was invited as part of a paparazzi photography team to flash up the place. Haha! :bsmilie:
You can rent the 50D for faster frame rate and the 580EX II for more powerful light over longer distance.
