I current own the following equipment and im looking for some advice on a camera/lens setup for each camera for a wedding as an only shooter.

Bodies: 7D - 5Dc
Lenses: Canon 50mm 1.8 and 55-250mm Sigma 30mm 1.4, 10-20mm,18-50mm and 24-60mm 2.8

As of right now I was thinking on using the following as my main setup
5D + Sigma 24-60mm with a flash
7D + Sigma 85mm 1.4
and keep my 30mm and 10-20mm on my waist in a ThinkTank chimp cage.
Advice?

I think that is a good setup for the ceremony. For most of the day, I run my 5d2 with 35L and my 7d with my 50L.

For your setup, I dont know because the 30 only works on the 7d right? That kinda takes my setup out of the equation.

Unfortunately it does. I am currently selling it and hope to pick up the 24L or 35L in which I would stick to the 5D and keep the 85(136 35mm Equivalent) on the 7D.
