I was probably going to pick up a couple for some extra OCF's. I like the style/function way more than the Vivitar's. But Elijah is right.

What do you use to edit your video King? Using a dolly or stedi-cam type?

And for those of you with Nikon - I've been looking for a lens to buy within the $500-600 range. Ideally something that would be very useful as a walk around lens at a wedding. But from my research, I'm looking at $1,200 for something like the 24-70mm 2.8.

I'm also just thinking about renting a lens for the wedding add using my money on a low end Canon DSLR with good video abilities so I can explore that a little more.

Try and look for a 28-70 2.8. It's the predecessor to the 24-70. Same beefy build quality, but cheaper since it's been replaced.

@jasper

your using a d90 which is dx and i know most people will bash the idea of spending so much on a dx lens and all but the nikon 17-55mm f2.8 would be the dx equivalent to that nikon 24-70 and is around the 800 dollar range used. unless your seriously plan to upgrade to an fx body with in the next five years then you should be fine with that.

You're right. I don't know when I'll go full frame. Don't see the need for it at the moment. So the 17-55mm 2.8 would do great.

I want to explore video a lot more. Nikon video isn't up to date, IMO. My D90 only does 720p at 24fps. It's not bad but I want something with more range. Still can't decide if I want to keep my D90 and just pick up a T1i/T2i or just sell my Nikon gear and move to Canon all together. Every time I pick up a Canon body I get the urge to sell the Nikon goodies.

highly recommend a T2i, 720 at 60fps. my t1i is 720 @ 30fps. but i really want a camera with manual video control, as of right now i just don't lock in my lens so i can keep my aperture at 1.8. otherwise it changes it to 5.6 and such. look for a used t2i someplace you may be able to find a cheap deal on one with extra batterys, grip, and such.

I do like how solid the nikons are compared to my T1i. haha plus the autofocus seems a lot smoother then my canon lenses 50mm 1.8 and 18-55 kit
