Depends on how dark it is in the church. The lens has IS, so that should help. You have a 6D, so bump up the ISO to get decent shutter speed.

If I don't get the shots I want with the gear I have, the only optics I need to examine is the mirror on the bathroom wall. The root cause will be there.

I have a 60D. It's ok at high iso but anything above 1600 and it's noticeable. Hopefully I'll upgrade to a 6D before the wedding.

I have done that with 7D, which is terrible for high ISOs compared to 6D. The results were pretty good, I think my pics were better than the photographers'. :D

you should have a 2nd camera with a wider lens on as well. Cant rely on a single camera with a telephoto lens for weddings. I tried the 70-200 for a wedding before (as a guest) and i got beautiful images with it but was often blocked by people who had no idea they were even blocking me because of the distance i had to stand.

Having a absolutely fantastic day at Helsinki Zoo. I mostly follow how my 3 year old daughter was amazed about all animals. Some were funny, some were scary. But most of them were very cute.

Does anyone have this lens mounted on the T3i? If so could you post a few pics please? Seriously thinking of this as my next lens

From the T4i, think that sensor is very nearly the same as the T3i. Two days ago, at f4.

We accidentally wandered into his comfort zone and he let us know we were to close. I did not feel comfortable upsetting him so we backed away.
