I am going to shoot an evening parade with Christmas trees and Santa and the like. Do you have any helpful tips?

I have a 50 1.2 and an 85 1.2 , 70-200mm 2.8 and a wide angle which I am going to bring. I have other lenses.

    I want to do people shots, but unclear if flash will make a good photo. When I have used flash for crowd shots you see the light fall of in an unpleasant way. I guess flash is best just for a few people and crop out the rest?

    I currently only have one body.

      Since it’s in the evening you will need a flash for any posed shots of people. Most only work with normal lens unless it’s specifically designed for wide angle or telephoto. You need a light source of any pictures that aren’t of the lights themselves. Street lights might work for some subjects but it’s not good for lighting for people.
