I currently own the Panasonic g7 and I have had it for a year now. It has a micro 4/3 sensor but I want to move in to full frame and explore all the dope canon lenses. I'm pretty experienced with using my camera and I know how to use cameras in general. I want to stay towards canon and my budget is $2200 hopefully with a lens as well. I will be using it to film anything and everything and will eventually invest in a glide cam or even a ronin to go with it. Any advice is appreciated.

I'd go 5D ii or iii, and then probably some primes or 1 nice zoom (or 2 if you buy used). youd probably want a 24, 35, 50, and 85, 105, or 135. Look at used stuff, because you wont be able to get shit brand new for $2200. You could buy a 5Dii anywhere for like $700-900. Idk how much the primes would be, you might be able to only get 2-3 of them, depending on if you want 1.8 or 1.4s

Yo, debating between a GH4 and 5. I have had a 4 before but sold it while I wasn’t filming much but got some stuff lined up for this winter. Have you heard of any noticeable differences between the 2? My buddy loves his Gh5 but not sure I want to spend the extra. Rather get another lens for the Gh4. Thought I’d ask you

Why full frame for filming? Off the top of my head your budget won't get you a full frame especially if you are looking to get a lens unless you go for an older 5d, maybe the 6d. Like eheath said I would stay away from Canon DSLR's for filming, Sony or Pana will be best.
