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 have used the 70-200mm 2.8 for several events for hours at a time and I am comfortable using it.

I will use the 14-24mm for establishing shots. I have used it for wide group shots, but I am not doing that for this venture.

I am happy with the pictures I have taken wide open with the 1.2s. I don’t think that will be a problem
