How is that again??? ;-)

I photograph quite a few weddings.

Normally I use my 300D with the 1.8 EF lens and a Fuji s7000 during
the ceremony. (90% Canon). I use the Fuji for zoom shots.

Now I have a Canon 28 -135 IS lens. The question is which lens to
use on the Canon during the ceremony.

Which lens will offer better low light performance? (usually shoot at
400).

Which lens will produce the sharpest image?

I would suggest that if you "photograph quite a few weddings" YOU would
be the best judge. By now you should know the advantages of each lens and
your "style" and the specific facilities should dictate which is best for
you and the situation.

I'm assuming you mean the 50mm f/1.8, which will be the sharper of the two.
If it was me, I'd feel very limited in composition compared to the zoom.
The zoom is, of course, image stabilized so I would think you can get
relatively sharp images compared to a non-IS zoom. Regardless of the lens,
the 300D will give cleaner images than the 300D.

I shot a party with the Canon 50mm f/1.4 on the 10D which would be similar
to 300D output. The sniping and portrait shots were sharp and spectacular.
Problem thought I never could get good room or group shots since my field of
view was too limited. Some sort of a zoom would have been better for the
party (wedding?).

Now, what zoom would be sharp, fast and somewhat lightweight for the indoor
party scene?
