    I’d say get the 50mm it’s a no-brainer. Then consider the 85 and 17-50 (they’re roughly same price). I think the 50 + 17-50 would be a good start, cause after all you get all these classic focal lengths (17,24,35,50 (x1.6)) in one piece (+ zooming), and you’d have a strong low-light performer in the 50mm.

    Thanks! I used the 85mm for essentially the whole film. This, on a crop-body (x1.6 magnification) resulted in a 136mm focal length (on a full-frame). I used the 50mm only for the time-lapsed building shots. You’ll be glad to know I own the 17-50 as well! And I love it, but in this vid I wanted the lowest ISO possible so I stuck with the primes. I highly recommend the Tamron and hope to use it’s zoom for a video soon,it’s smooth. For low-light though the extra f stop is key.

    Great Video!!! So did you use 30mm and 50mm (about 50 and 80 on cropped sensor) or did you use the 50mm and 85mm? I’m deciding on either two prime lenses for my 60D or a good zoom lens (tamron 17-50mm). Any suggestions?

    I like your taste in cameras 😛 To be honest the when I the 85mm it just made me wanna make films so bad.

    This looks really good. I just got a 60D, too, so I’m glad it can do great stuff like this.
