I'll start! I have a Pentax K10d and love it. My fav lens is the Tamron 28-75 2.8 and my Pentax 50mm 1.4. I couldn't live without my Alien Bee lighting and my wireless triggers!

I presently use a Nikon d200 and back up with a d70s. I hope to get the d700 soon. From the reviews, it seems to be the ideal wedding photographer's camera. I love shooting raw, so I have a couple 8gb flash cards. My fav lens i my Nkon DX 18 -135

I use the Canon 50D with a 40D as back up. I find the Canon 18-200 covers everything I need for an event or wedding so I no longer need to keep changing lenses. The only time a change lens is for portraits and I us a Canon 50mm fixed focal for them as I can play a lot more with the light without loosing quality.
