Test footage with cheaper glass ??

PostWed Aug 29, 2012 5:16 am

I'm eagerly awaiting the release of this camera and am seriously considering taking the plunge but it would be nice to see some footage shot with somewhat inexpensive lens? We'd all love to have the lens they used in the Zacuto Shootout( Fujinon 18-85 Zoom) but I think for those folks buying a $3k camera will be buying $87k lens any time soon! Even some of the sample footage that's been made available has used some pretty pricy glass. I'm sure even with less pricy glass it'll still look great and I suppose when people start getting their cameras we'll see tons more footage.

I'm not saying we should be throwing crappy F5 Canon kit lens on the front of this pup but what about some footage with lens in the $800 to $1500 range?
