Also hard to choose which lens to carry with you as you have to be light in gear for mobility.

I have been shooting conferences for the past six years now, and I concur with most of your tips. A good zoom is only needed in the main tent presentations when you want to capture the expression on the presenters face. A good tip is also to make some shots (if it is there) of the main screens. Especially if there are awards being handed out. A shot in between of the company/person who is receiving the award is really helpful if you have to hand out quickly the presspictures after the conference. Thanks for these tips.

Maybe I didn't get to zoom, but I know that lens and was really happy with the results. @Sahul actually I prefer Aperture priority mode more than P, but sometimes P is fun too. @Daniel true, but shooting another fashion show last night I switched from my 70-200 to my 85.

Getting closer is the thing and the suggestion to use program mode is good. I normaly would shoot in Aperture mode and put WB in auto mode. Great article that was.

Actually I bought the 85 1.8, that you are also talking about, just for this... to be able to capture the moments on people faces. But again the tools in not everything as you mentioned.
