Which lenses and camera for short films?
I was just wondering which lenses and camera should I get, as i'm stuck choosing them for making short films, music videos, may be you could help.
Now I have nikkor 50mm 1.4, 85mm 1.8, Carl zeiss 50mm 1.4
I probably will get cropped sensor camera as its so cheap - 600D (altho I'm hesitating between 5d ii, but I will get camera man when filming and they normally have there own cameras, so not sure… )
And was thinking of getting 21mm, 35mm Carl Zeiss ZF lenses, have them cine modified, but they are a bit expensive, for getting them I have to "sell my kidneys"
Is it actually ok to shoot 1 film with vintage nikon+carl zeiss mixed? Like wide angle shots all with nikon and close ups with zeiss. Zeiss has more cine look, wich I'm after, I do not want to have video look, at all!
Shell I just get 28mm to my 50mm zeiss and 20mm nikkor and it will cover pretty much, but I'm not sure if its ok mixing them in 1 project.

Nikon Lenses: Any significant difference with those 'special labels' like N, ED?
So, I've come across the very famous Nikkor 35mm f/1.8G and the 35mm f/1.4G. The 1.4 is obviously 6x the price of the 1.8. The 1.4 has "N" and the 1.8G doesn't. Does this make any difference?
What about with ED?

Is it possible to shoot such image with a AF-S DX Micro NIKKOR 85mm f/3.5G ED VR?
Is it possible to shoot a image like (http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=427278513985747&set=a.340971509283115.78878.203375569709377&type=3&theater0 ) with a true 1:1 macro lens. If not then what kind of lens is required to shoot like it… Consider other factors like ring flash… Tripod… Background… Etc. Are perfect.
Another question is is it a normal size image or enlarged? Is it possible to enlarge a normal photo (from a 16 mega pixel SLR) with such details?

I just got the new nikon d600 and i'm very happy with it but now i need a wide angle lense for the kind of pics i'm looking for… It might be a silly question, but… Wich one you reckon is the best? The nikon 12-24, the tamron 10-24 or the sigma 10-20! Any suggestions at all! I d really appreciate everyone's help! Thanks!
Added (1). Yes, sorry the 14-24 nikon

How to add more quality to my nikkor 28-70 2.8 ED lens which is 10 years old?
Its very costly lens near 1600 dollar when bought. But nw the picture quality is like very bad. That means a fade out in colour and more fog in the images. The lens was already cleaned 3 times by professionals. But nw the picture quality is worst than taking in a 18-105 ED lens. So i'm looking forward for any thread that relevant.
