    stop thinking about $$$ gear and go shoot! a 50mm F1.8 and a kit 18-55 isn't too bad believe it or not.... Lens sharpness for video is FAR less important than for stills. Also not that you want to minimize lens "breathing" where when you do a focus pull, your lens's optics cause the focal length to change a bit, hence an unintentional "zoom"

    a bunch of adapters and old manual focus Nikon primes can do nicely if you're the kind who wants to shoot carefully and with smoother aperture tweeking while shooting by hand...
