On-Set Pro Tips (Canon)

[wedding-group-rows]: Focal length law for groups: Never go wider than 35mm (Full Frame) if guests stand near the left/right edges — wide-angle perspective stretches people at the edges up to 30% wider!
[wedding-confetti-exit]: Before the couple exits, instruct guests: 'Throw confetti HIGH up in the air, not straight into their faces!' — this gives you clear faces framed by a shower of confetti above.
[wedding-church-ceremony]: Before the ceremony starts, ALWAYS shoot 1 test frame with electronic shutter toward the church lights/white walls and zoom in 100% to check for LED banding immediately.
[event-stage-led-wall]: With bright LED walls behind a speaker, matrix metering gets fooled. Link spot/face metering to the active AF point or dial in -0.7 EV compensation.
[portrait-bokeh-wide-open]: If your f/1.2 or f/1.4 prime bokeh looks choppy or clipped into half-moons at 1/4000 s in bright sun, Electronic Front Curtain Shutter (EFCS) is the culprit. Turn EFCS off in the shutter menu!
[portrait-sparklers-night]: Sparkler exit pro tip: Stage the sparkler exit during late Blue Hour (~25 min after sunset) instead of midnight — the sky looks rich royal blue and autofocus locks twice as fast!
[wedding-group-rows]: The 'Row 2 Trick': For 3 rows, never focus on Row 1 (you waste half your depth of field on the empty ground in front of their feet). Always focus on the eyes of someone in the middle of Row 2!

On-Set Pro Tips (Nikon)

[wedding-group-rows]: Focal length law for groups: Never go wider than 35mm (Full Frame) if guests stand near the left/right edges — wide-angle perspective stretches people at the edges up to 30% wider!
[wedding-confetti-exit]: Before the couple exits, instruct guests: 'Throw confetti HIGH up in the air, not straight into their faces!' — this gives you clear faces framed by a shower of confetti above.
[wedding-church-ceremony]: Before the ceremony starts, ALWAYS shoot 1 test frame with electronic shutter toward the church lights/white walls and zoom in 100% to check for LED banding immediately.
[event-stage-led-wall]: With bright LED walls behind a speaker, matrix metering gets fooled. Link spot/face metering to the active AF point or dial in -0.7 EV compensation.
[portrait-bokeh-wide-open]: If your f/1.2 or f/1.4 prime bokeh looks choppy or clipped into half-moons at 1/4000 s in bright sun, Electronic Front Curtain Shutter (EFCS) is the culprit. Turn EFCS off in the shutter menu!
[portrait-sparklers-night]: Sparkler exit pro tip: Stage the sparkler exit during late Blue Hour (~25 min after sunset) instead of midnight — the sky looks rich royal blue and autofocus locks twice as fast!
[wedding-group-rows]: The 'Row 2 Trick': For 3 rows, never focus on Row 1 (you waste half your depth of field on the empty ground in front of their feet). Always focus on the eyes of someone in the middle of Row 2!

On-Set Pro Tips (Panasonic)

[wedding-group-rows]: Focal length law for groups: Never go wider than 35mm (Full Frame) if guests stand near the left/right edges — wide-angle perspective stretches people at the edges up to 30% wider!
[wedding-confetti-exit]: Before the couple exits, instruct guests: 'Throw confetti HIGH up in the air, not straight into their faces!' — this gives you clear faces framed by a shower of confetti above.
[wedding-church-ceremony]: Before the ceremony starts, ALWAYS shoot 1 test frame with electronic shutter toward the church lights/white walls and zoom in 100% to check for LED banding immediately.
[event-stage-led-wall]: With bright LED walls behind a speaker, matrix metering gets fooled. Link spot/face metering to the active AF point or dial in -0.7 EV compensation.
[portrait-bokeh-wide-open]: If your f/1.2 or f/1.4 prime bokeh looks choppy or clipped into half-moons at 1/4000 s in bright sun, Electronic Front Curtain Shutter (EFCS) is the culprit. Turn EFCS off in the shutter menu!
[portrait-sparklers-night]: Sparkler exit pro tip: Stage the sparkler exit during late Blue Hour (~25 min after sunset) instead of midnight — the sky looks rich royal blue and autofocus locks twice as fast!
[wedding-group-rows]: The 'Row 2 Trick': For 3 rows, never focus on Row 1 (you waste half your depth of field on the empty ground in front of their feet). Always focus on the eyes of someone in the middle of Row 2!

On-Set Pro Tips (Sony)

[wedding-group-rows]: Focal length law for groups: Never go wider than 35mm (Full Frame) if guests stand near the left/right edges — wide-angle perspective stretches people at the edges up to 30% wider!
[wedding-confetti-exit]: Before the couple exits, instruct guests: 'Throw confetti HIGH up in the air, not straight into their faces!' — this gives you clear faces framed by a shower of confetti above.
[wedding-church-ceremony]: Before the ceremony starts, ALWAYS shoot 1 test frame with electronic shutter toward the church lights/white walls and zoom in 100% to check for LED banding immediately.
[event-stage-led-wall]: With bright LED walls behind a speaker, matrix metering gets fooled. Link spot/face metering to the active AF point or dial in -0.7 EV compensation.
[portrait-bokeh-wide-open]: If your f/1.2 or f/1.4 prime bokeh looks choppy or clipped into half-moons at 1/4000 s in bright sun, Electronic Front Curtain Shutter (EFCS) is the culprit. Turn EFCS off in the shutter menu!
[portrait-sparklers-night]: Sparkler exit pro tip: Stage the sparkler exit during late Blue Hour (~25 min after sunset) instead of midnight — the sky looks rich royal blue and autofocus locks twice as fast!
[wedding-group-rows]: The 'Row 2 Trick': For 3 rows, never focus on Row 1 (you waste half your depth of field on the empty ground in front of their feet). Always focus on the eyes of someone in the middle of Row 2!
