She was born a year ago today. Luckily I had the 7D and was able to capture some video when the Doctor thought I was only taking pictures!

Would it help if you contacted the airline beforehand and let them know you're a photographer/videographer/cinematographer and you'll be traveling with all this gear?

Kren, this is how I started out. I used my A1 video camera rolling the entire time during the ceremony. I shot about 5 weddings this way and eventually moved the A1 to a box in my basement.

Is there much of a difference between an older 70-200mm and the new version? The new version is $2,400 but a used lens can go for $1,500. Which would you buy?
