Yes Mr. Antoni, I am using the provided lens (the 18 -55mm). I am just using my built-in flash. You are correct Mr. Pooky, I will just use it on my son's Christening/baptismal.
THANKS.

use a tri/monopod if you can, if the light is really low - it proberly will be, use iso 400 or so, apeture priority of F3.5 - 5.6 (thats the lens your using?)

Outdoor using Circular Polarizing Filter that you could see a contrast images and Blue Sky, Portrait shots using Softener filter or Diffuser filter , Indoor at Restaurant ,using Bounce flash with Lightsphere and an Orange cover,because lighting from a Restaurant have "Tungstun" Lighting,so you must use Yellow cover for Flash Diffuser.Very easy lah.

You need to read the manual completely and be familiar with the controls of your camera before your big job (I assume you're doing this for your friends or family, and not professionally). Because if something goes wrong, they will be pretty.. upset. Get an extra battery or two and fully charge them. Have extra memory cards available. Are you shooting RAW or just JPG? What lens(es) do you plan to use? Are you going to use a flash? built-in, or external?
You should at least get an UV filter to protect your lens. You're not saying if you're shooting outdoor, or indoor, what time of day, etc.
A polarizer filter should darken the sky a bit--and cut down on reflection, but that's for outdoor, in daylight but I can't think of using any other filter for this. Someone else may perhaps suggest something else other than cross-star filter? (It looks too corny to me).

Don't need a filter.
Put the camera on AUTO and let it do the thinking.
This will let you concentrate on the picture and not the technical stuff.
Good luck!
