For weddings, I’m big on reliability and redundancy: two bodies and dual card slots are the real non-negotiables. I’ve had cameras fail on me before, and the last thing you want is finishing a wedding on an iPhone because you didn’t plan for backups.

Pros

+Dual card slots protect you if a card corrupts
+Second body prevents total failure if a camera breaks
+Reliable system is more important than chasing the newest model

Cons

-Two-body setup increases upfront cost
-More gear to manage if you’re not organized
