35mm cameras are compact, fast and light, qualities that are of tremendous importance for weddingphotography. Reloading can be done in seconds, and each roll of film holds up to 36 frames, which means that fewer shots will be missed while reloading. The lenses made for modern 35mm cameras are sharp and fast. Wedding photographers who use 35mm equipment always praise this format's high quality and unbeatable versatility.

Although detailed prints can be made up to 20" x 30" using the sharpest 35mm film, most people never even consider ordering images this large. When you consider that most photo albums accept a maximum photograph size of 8"x10", coupled with the format's low cost and flexibility, 35mm film cameras are still widely used in wedding photography.
