Which Raw for weddings on the 5D2?

[rgrebby]

I have 3 8gb cards and a 2gb one and was wondering what the best raw setting to use.

Seems like Raw standard takes about 290 pics on an 8gb card so im thinking raw-1 or is the quality too low?

Go for standard RAW. If you used anything else you are losing pixels, so why use a 5DmkII? I never could understand why Canon added these reduced pixel RAW options anyway!:bonk:

Indeed.. why would anyone spend £££'s on the 5D2 for those extra pixels, then not use them?

I assume anyone with the cash for a 5D2 can get a few 4gb cards as well
