group or team pictures


I would like some advice on shooting
group or team pictures. I currently use a Canon Elan7E, with a 28-95mm lense and Canon 550EX Flash. For a team of 30 with three rolls of ten people. I normally set the lense as wide as possible 28mm and the fill viewfinder. My concern is distance and dept of field. What f/stop would you suggest and also what is a good distance from the subjects i.e. 15'or 20'. Without the picture appearing distorted or to far back.

Thank you,

Andre

  Using the 28 end of your lens won't distort all that much. With three rows of people f8 should work out fine.
