wedding crisis
Ok I'm doing a wedding For a friend On Dec 18
I recieved $150 as a deposit. What I have soo far is the following: - Sennheiser Evolution G2 100 Series - Sony VX2100 - Renting a VX2000 (for help) from a friend - My friend has an iriver (would like to borrow it) - Beachtek XLR Considering: - Sony NP-QM91D - http://tinyurl.com/76y8v - Giant Squid 3 foot - http://www.giant-squid-audio-lab.com/gs/gs-mono1.htm Anything else?? Remember there's a $150 budget Thanks |
Well I guess all things are in order...
I'll just go ahead and move forward, thanks for at least viewing my post... |
Dante, I don't think the battery you are looking at is the one you want. I believe the VX2100 uses an L series battery.
If you don't have a mic you might consider the Videomic from Rode. Curt |
I would strongly recommend using a tripod to record the ceremony. The reception can be shot hand-held.
|
Agreed. Don't even think of shooting the ceremony without a tripod.

150 deposit?? how much was the package??
do u really think 2 cams is worth the post work??? Even if its a friends wedding thats ok, but dont dig a hole too deep.. Id say rent a tripod for now, and shoot only the ceremony and speeches with 2 cams (borrow one if u have to) Dont spend more than you have to... good luck |
An on-camera light is useful for the reception, especially for the first dance and cake cutting. Check out the Bescor lights at B&H for under $100 including battery.
|
I also question the "M" series battery. Should be "L" series?

Man I'll have to get some extra cash before the wedding, because after the battery purchase I'll have but soo much left |
Or you could buy this slightly cheaper replacement. It's also listed under the accessories tab of the VX2100
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/cont...Type=accessory I bought 2 last week. Never used them though. They have the same specs as the Sony's. |

battery time out the box was 281min (viewfinder open) Not too bad considering what I use to get before. |
All times are GMT -6. The time now is 03:13 AM. |
