1. Depends on your $$$. But if I were you I'd buy this : http://www.imaging-resource.com/PRODS/S6000/S6000A.HTM Good luck!
2. I have an Olympus Evolt 500. But I've seen great pics from the Nikon 10megapixel. You want to go with something that is userfriendly, like the Nikon. But I love my Evolt.
3. In any photography the most important thing is 3 inches behind the viewfinder. Any camera that gives photos of high enough quality to meet the clients needs will do. For some clients a digital point and shoot is OK. For others, only a medium format film camera will do. I use a Canon digital SLR with a 24-85 zoom and a 70-200 zoom for most of the weddings I shoot, and a medium format film camera for the rest. I shoot with my digital quality/resolution always set to RAW and Kodak Professional Portra for film. Before you shoot a wedding be sure you have the skills, knowledge, and experience to feel comfortable in capturing a once-in-a-lifetime event. And be sure your friends agree you have all that...
