Good choice in camera....but you won't fully appreciate it's capabilities unless you do some reading and take lots of images!
You won't outgrow this camera any time soon.
Have fun, and you won't miss having "Live Preview". Most cameras that have that feature have issues with how fast the camera refreshes the lcd screen, and shutter lag...meaning you get to see a live preview of you missing the shot....learn to use the slr viewfinder, and the camera data it displays, and watch how much better your images get!

I use sonys but I hear these are better!
at the very least, mic the groom...best to mic everybody, or tap into the "House" system if you can.

I think you're limited to trying an underwater housing...or building a soundproof box (heard that's been done for tv/movie set photography).

I know what you mean though...Gerri works fairly close to the wedding party...I try to use my g5 and pro one as i work near the video cams, and keep my video cams far back in the room, with wireless lave mics and rode video mics....
the lavs don't pick up the clicks so much.

I use the "Clicks" (and the flash pops) to help line up and synch the audio from video camera a to video camera b, in final cut express.

Everything slr, in it's class and/or it's price range is gonna be about the same.
A compact or evf will be much quieter.

that's why I have Both!

my g5 and Pro one work quiety. Use in good light, and will focus in no light, my slrs work (if you know what you're doing)for everything!

point your camera at a white/bright solid colored wall. (focus at this point is irrevelent)
set your diopter so that the af markers [ ] in the center of the viewfinder look razer sharp.
now it's set up right, leave it alone.

Pretend the pop up flash doesn't exist.
What would you do?
use another flash on the hotshoe (manual or auto, not p-ttl).
use your other flashes with slaves.

or buy slaves designed to ignore the preflash.

the on camera flash is for novices, not guys like you an' me.

too bad it won't be around.....while the other peice of work is probably some long gone comedians tribute to our genus...Homo Erectus....Homer is cultural icon of our times. Who says he doesn't belong there.....

I shoot Weddings.....
faster focus, less noise, ability to get images in lower light, with faster shutters and less flash ARE exactly why I'd want those lenses.

You have to use what works. There's always trade offs. You can get excellent images with all three lenses. The question is HOW MANY excellent images under HOW MANY different conditions.

I get paid to pull out aces under conditions where others get jokers.....
Having the right equipment to do that costs more.....
