Re: How to shoot a wedding with the GH2/GH1
 
I use the Delkin, it's all I need. You don't need the new lenses until you learn your camera, and have the prospect of some work. There is gear I want right now, but my next wedding isn't till spring, so I"m waiting for now.

When you use a lens like the 25mm, for example, your work, when mixed with some good camera placement, etc will look SO good your samples will stand out and this will make you money. You post your samples and you are off to the races.

You can learn the camera perfectly fine with your kit lens, so stick with it and shoot eveything you can and then edit your footage into little montages, and post your work online. This will get you into the workflow of the wedding thing, which you will need experience in.

You can go inside a church, with permission, and just spend an hour shooting detail shots with your GH2. Shoot the exterior, interior wide shots, then do your detail shots, put it to some music, and post it.
