I never turned on the photo mode, VDSLR-specialists will understand me, this budget model is made especially for us who choose an affordable option, instead of the expensive 5D Mark II. Perfect for filming staged video. Buy lenses no higher than F1.2, 1.4, for wide-angle F2.4. My optimal focal lengths for shooting with primes are 14mm, 35mm, 85mm. On a crop, this will be the equivalent - 22.4mm, 56mm, 136mm, that is, the most common viewing angles.
