Photography Question

What film should I use at a wedding?


I am in a wedding party on August 27th, and I am going to be talking lots of pictures. I was wondering what speed film I should use. I bought some 160 speed, because I was told that it is best for weddings. Should I go with that or should I use something else? Any other advice when it comes to shooting a wedding would be really helpful.

  Unless you have a very powerful flash, I would suggest you use 400 speed, preferably Kodak NC, or the Fuji equivalent. 160 will work for most shots but may be too slow for the groups.

  How are you planning to take pictures if you are in the wedding party?

  I assumed she is going to be a bridesmaid and wants to take some after the wedding itself. I have seen several maids do that.
