Good filming lenses for DLSR

[DANIELMORTENSEN]

Something a bit lower in price? I have a t3i and have been looking around for a good lens. I have just used my 18-35mm lens right now.

I film with a Tamron 17-50 f/2.8 and I love it!

Either of these. The Helios is cheap!

 

[jeb_b_vt]

love mine too!

Tokina 11-16 for follows. 50mm 1.8 if you have a tripod works well and is less than $100. if you're looking for real cheap it's a good lens, but basically requires a tripod

Look at some fisheyes. I know Rokinon makes one that is around 275$. Look up rokinon 8mm on amazon.

The standard NS setup is a t2i/t3i, Rokinon 8mm, Tokina 11-18, and a Tamron 17-50

Maybe a 70-200 and a 50 f1.8 thrown in, but that's usually the extent.

Honestly it's a pretty good crop of lenses, but I go with vintage primes for the most part. Zooms really don't appeal to me that much, even if they are fast, they're heavier and bring distortion I dislike.

Prime-wise I go with a 28, a 50, and a 135 for most things.
