Hey guys, I have a 5D mk II and while I love it for pictures, I am struggling to get good video out of it. I currently only have a 50 1.2 L and a 85 1.2 mk II L lens. All my video show too much movement. Without getting into a full blown prof. setup, should I buy the 24-105 L IS lens instead for video? Does the IS really help to get more stable video? I was also considering getting the 24 II 1.4 L ...
Option 1:
-Get a monopod - done
-Buy the 24-105 L IS lens
Option 2:
- Buy a tripod with a video head - this is less flexible in terms of taking video on the spot...
Option 3:
- Invest in a redrock type rig (though I still think I would need a new IS lens for this one)...
The more practical option I see is option 1, but would it yeild better video? Should I just use the monopod with my existing lens?
Thanks in advance for all the response.
