manual focus lenses because you wouldnt want to use AF anyways and they got better focus ring, not to mention that you can get few quality lenses(for different focal lengths) for a price of one.


just buy an older lens

i would suggest a lens with an aperture ring so you can change DoF during filming

yea this is also a nice thing with manual lenses. but the problem is that the lens should be modified to control aperture without steps on aperture
