    For video (and a crop sensor) I find the 24-105mm is great - it's only f4 but has image stabilisation which is VERY handy when shooting from car / on the move. Plus it's not always easy swapping lenses when on a run'n'gun type shoot.

    From primes I'd say the 35 1.4 is spot on as it gives you nice DOF but also versatile (either normal wide, or normal depending on sensor).

    Best thing though, which a bunch of DOP's here have done, is invest in a set of Leica R lenses converted for canon mount. Amazing lenses and relatively cheap for leica.
