Buying a 5d mark ii with such low experience is too much of a jump imo.
Also, buying a 5d mark ii to use it with those shitty lenses provided with that package would be like driving a ferrari @ 20 miles per hour.

it´s actually true. alot of people use DSLRs for videography nowadays, since the quality is superb and you have such a huge variety of lenses to work with. plus the play with dof etc......

im actually looking for the best video cam wich provides photography as well.

Getting such expensive equipment without even knowing the basics of photography sounds stupid to me, but it's your money so your choice.
If you want the best get a 5d mark ii + 24-70.

knowing the basics ? I know the basics. Got difficulties to transfer it into english since i'm from quebec and learned everything in french !

Im into manual photography since 2 years, but it seems my camera is lacking some power sometimes and when I get into the editing part I'm missing some qualities.

manual or analog?

Sorry then, i assumed from your first post especially this 2 lines that you didn't know much:





My bad if i was wrong.
You can't go wrong with the 5d mark ii.
Simply one of the best cameras and videocameras on the market.

well in french its "manuel" and "automatique"

Im setting everything manually

Edit :


I was just lazy to go and get the EXACT number of my lens

This. There's a reason Canon kicked Nikon's ass and Nikon had to release the D7000
