You are right, I should have mentioned that my camera is the Samsung NX1.

@Flynn We are on the same page Flynn , I couldn't understand why the others where giving me a hard time about my focal length selection while your post showed they are the most popular.

But BTT please. I don't know why this again developed to a sensor size discussion. I really think people like to talk about it, even if everybody understood it already.

@maxmizer I am not sure where your problem is? Are you the nitpicker guy, that crys "uh pros use t-stop lenses, if you can go with master primes"? I even wrote about my budget, but you didn't even read my post, did you?

Yes, I know the fact that I am on APSC since I already mentioned it in original post. However since this is similar to super 35 with is the reference for dops when talking about focal length and the fact that 3 of the lenses I was asking for are in this top 4 I have am surpised why you keep telling me that.

Hello fellow filmmakers,

I am feeling confused and overwhelmed by the information there is out on vintage lenses and I have spend so much time my head is feeling to explode. I've come to the part where I need your help.

I am looking to build my first lens kit for cinematography (and a little bit photography) on my apsc sized sensor camera, mainly for vimeo style shorts.

The focal length I am currently searching for are 35mm, 50mm, 85mm but don't feel strictly to these if you have a great lens tell me.

So here is the criteria I looking for (2.8 and faster):

sharpness (if possible right from wide open, as much as the limitations following allow)
good color renderition
bokeh (good bokeh is a question of taste I know)
price (below 130€, cheaper price to performance beasts are much appreciated)
(5. radioactive lenses should be marked as such, please )

If you know what you are talking about I would greatly welcome you if you could spend the time and post a top 3 of lenses to look for for each of the categories above. Sorry for taking your time, I know there are a lot of threads around this online, I have read many, but I came to the point where I just need the help of some smart people.

Thanks for your time. Have a great day. Your expertise is much appreciated.

Dear nx hack developers,

first of all thanks for giving us our time to improve the abandoned NX1. It's great to see the progress made in the last months but the thread is, to my mind, shifting in the wrong direction, namely a race of bitrates and framerates.

I think the goal is to make a more potent video camera for production and as a result the focus should lay on other factors like the goal to record 10bit color internally to increase the downsides the camera still faces in post production.

I know that this can be very difficult to implement and that you are just a little group.

I also know that it's diffcult to realize with no support by samsung but this would be my goals:

• 10 Bit color
• Cropmarks (popular aspect ratios)- if graphics stuff is even possible
• Waveform, Vectorscope & Histogramm - if graphics stuff is even possible
• activate focus peaking always on/off and magic zoom on button press for lenses with passively adapted lenses, so you dont always klick the touchscreen icon
• easy clean fast settings UI
