You should get "Ballsy" and "Insane" award for wedding photography. Seriously I thought about NX20 for this, but shooting wedding with NX210, thats nuts.

You were main photog? If yes, how they took "hey that guy is shooting with point-n-shoot?".

Btw. pretty good pics.

I was the second shooter for this wedding but I'm confidant that the camera is capable. I tend to have to work a bit more with because I'm using it in manual mode to work with the flash. I have done plenty of wedding with my more sizable Nikon gear and wondered if anyone would comment on the camera system I was using, no ever did. I have a theory that the small camera size may be a bit less intimidating to some subjects.

Thanks for the kind words on the photos and the testicular fortitude.

I prefer the smaller cameras for weddings too, but do regularly get comments about my Nikon gear too (back breaker lens and flash on the camera).  I prefer the small stuff.  Many people are way to hung up on gear, and perceptions mean a lot to certain people, unfortunately.  I think if you establish yourself well you can get by shooting whatever you want though as long as your results are good.  Great shots by the way
