back up cameras


when looking at a back up camera, does it have to be the same as your primary? I'm just getting started as a wedding photographer and I don't have a budget for two big camera's. I'm looking at a Fuji s2pro for my primary, what do you recommend as a back up?

  Hi Donald I would consider getting a backup body first and then build on that. I'm not 100% sure but I believe the s2pro uses Nikon fit lenses. If this is the case then perhaps a Nikon D100 it's not at the top of the scales but my friend uses his as a main camera on weddings. If you get somthing like this then you can uses the lenses CHECK THIS FIRST though. It's not only cameras think of memory cards, batterys, flash and so on. If the Nikon will work with your lenses you could pick up a good second hand one on ebay just a suggestion.

Good luck

Vince
