    The 50mm lens’ are nice but you have to keep in mind that its a crop censor so 1.6x 50mm = 80mm

    i have a 7D and have just purchased a canon 17-55mm f2.8, was going to get the L-series 24-70mm f2.8 but after using it on a shoot found it just wasnt wide enough in some instances.

    F-stop is part of the Lens specifications.

    So you would look for something like a Canon 24-70mm f2.8 lens. whereas say the Canon 18-55mm you mentioned in your original post is f3.5-5.6 “Variable”

    Having a variable f-stop when shooting video will cause the the brightness to change while filming.
    Its like having ND filters going on and off randomly.

    Dont get the 18-55 or the 55-200 as they have variable F-Stops.

    you need to look at lens’ with fixed F-stop
