Canon_Shoe Goldmember  More info | Apr 17, 2014 08:33 | #1 I'm just wondering and I'm sure everyone has their own take, but what is your most used focus mode for weddings? I'm shooting a beach wedding this weekend with the 5D2 and I'm planning on using AI Servo mostly, but is it the best choice? If it's lower light and I have my flash, then I use one shot as I get the beam assist from the flash which really seems to help. What are your thoughts on the best focus mode for this situation?

Would probably be better served to post in the wedding discussion area. -Jim

digitalparadise Awaiting the title ferry...  More info | Apr 17, 2014 09:42 | #4 ^^^Me too. A lot of people leave AI Servo on all the time. First AF assist is disabled and after a long day when you tire out it starts getting more difficult to continually confirm your subject is in focus. At least it does for me. I like to see the AF confirmation in One Shot light up. Image Editing OK
