Two togs Two systems One wedding. ?

[..MD..]

I would like to know what peoples thoughts are shooting a wedding with two togs . One using canon and the other using nikon.:shrug:

Would there be any issues that would need addressing. ie trying to make the album look the same all the way .

:shrug:

hard to answer for sure without knowing how you'll process afterwards,assuming one was processing everything then I would of thought the two different togs styles may come across in the shots but that would be the biggest issue

The different styles shouldn't be a problem - if anything, it should make for a better set of pics, more variation etc. It would be better if there was just one person doing the processing, keeps everything constant!

And of course, the Canon user should be gagging to come over to the dark side afterwards

When I shoot with another tog then one of us does the processing.

I did one last weekend with a colleague and I checked all the exposures, white balanced them and wrote them to DVD. That way she can apply any further processing she likes but at last she has a set of clean images to work from.

Nothing worse then having to start with dull or purple/yellow images

And since every wedding tog I've ever worked with has shot Canon, it's never been a problem. (I know DD and Hacker use Nikon but I've never worked with them)

I shot a Riding Club Show with Yv the other week - and I did all the processing. I found the initial differences between the Canon and Nikon systems interesting but a quick change of the white balance soon levels them up. The lighting was changing constantly thoughout the day and the angles were different so even from the same camera they do not look the same.

I think other photographers would be a lot more likely to notice any small differences than the clients would.

Good question MD

For my part - I notice quite a difference between my D2Xs & D300, so yes I'd expect to see at least the same sort of difference between different makes

Dellipher always edits hers to pass on only the best shots, and she shoots different subjects/lenses too (with a D300 too) so I do all the processing

I usually ask her to shoot on just 1 WB, usually flash, so it's easier to see when I've corrected her WB to mine; and I also usually tell her what ISO to shoot on too to maintain the 'look'

The wedding my wife and I shot in December we used four different cameras, I had two Canons and she used two Nikons. I processed the images using Corel. There is no clear difference in the quality only the composition, which is a bonus.
Hope it goes well.

I think you would get bigger 'differences' from the individual style than from the different cameras tbh Dave. Yes, the two kits might produce shots that look slightly different to you, in terms of colour or clarity, but nothig that probably couldn't be evened up in processing. Style differences are a bonus I think, gives you more options for the final set.
