35mm and Medium Format Wedding Photography

Nikon N80, 35mm, 50mm, Arista Premium 400, Mamiya C330, 80mm, Tri-X
Recently, I shot a wedding using these 2 cameras. I was the second shooter, my colleague covered the event with 2 Nikon DSLR. Choosing to shoot only Black and White film, there were no concerns on white balance issues. However, changing ISO values mid roll was not possible. I had fun, but came to the conclusion that I need the security of:
  1. LCD preview
  2. 16 Gb giving me 16 megapixels, about 800-900 images
  3. Convenience of dropping everything onto Lightroom
  4. Ease of post-production
For personal projects, there's nothing else I'd use other than my trusty film boxes loaded with black and white film.
