Question: What Photo Equipment Do I Need For Event Photography?







I prefer not to specialize and want to exposed myself to lots of different types of photography. Such as corporate events, christenings, bar mitzvahs, weddings and sports.







What type of cameras, lenses and other equipment do I need to be a successful event photographer?







In today’s episode:

The basic event photography kit – 2 cameras, 2 lens and a flash

With a basic kit you want at least two camera bodies, two lenses and one flash.







That will get you through 99% of what you want as a event photographer. Having a short lens and a long lens will cover the focal range.







Having two camera bodies will help you have a bit of a back up as well, if one fails, double duty there. And having a flash will help you when it comes to low light situations,
