The kit zoom is actually very good, but slow. Lens speed could be a problem. As you know, you will almost certainly not be able to use a flash, while they are rolling film. ;-) Maybe you can rent a 1.4/50 or the Nikkor 28mm f/1.4D AF. There is also the Nikkor 17-35mm f/2.8D AF-S, which is a really good lens. I would also bring something long like a 2.8/ 70-200 or the 2.5/105. You may also want to think about a camera blimp. The M6 is pretty quiet, especially is you are standing in the deadzone of the shotgun mic, but you may want to test the D70. Heck if worst come to worst, wrap it in something to deaden the sound. ;-) feli ________________________________________________________ feli2@earthlink.net 2 + 2 = 4 www.elanphotos.com no archive
