Err... You REALLY think there is reason?

I assume the folks in the wedding forum will be happy to this up.

Yeah, you made a terrible mistake. Nikons are not good enough for the average wedding.

Just an observation ,of fact I am extremely puzzuled as to the reason
John, it's because a lot of wedding photographers use the Canon 85mm f1.2 and the 50mm f1.2 for artistic reasons to set their photography apart and give themselves a small edge on the competition, and ONLY Canon has one! Not counting old dilapidated manual lenses that pros don't use!!
So if all you want are run-of-the-mill wedding shots, ANY camera will do!!!!
But I'm sure you get paid for your weddings just the same, so either don't sweat it, or switch!!!! LoL

I have been to 6 weddings in the past 14 months and all used Canon 5D MK iii's and many used the 70-200 F2.8 IS lens. Some had version 1 and some had version 2. My wife has 10 brothers and sisters......lots of nieces and nephews.....

i kind of guessed that it was the lens selection, the photographer was using mostly primes and only once they used a zoom . My Nikon delivers great color and clarity (full frame) with primes, guess it's what they are comfortable with .

John, it's not a matter of comfort, it's a matter of advantage!
Advantage gets you more work and higher paying jobs. Period!! ;-)

Canon has an autofocus f/1.2 lens. That's what they wanted. If they use Nikon they could get f/1.2 lenses but they won't be AF and these guys just can't manual focus.

Can't manual focus or don't have the extra time it takes to focus a manual lens?

Either way it's just not possible with the Nikon.

Sergei Yurin dumped his Canon gear and uses Olympus OMD-E-M5.
Not Canon, Nikon or full or even APS-C.
These are from a micro 4/3rds camera.
