Thanks for your advice.
I’m not so sure about what you meant about the nifty fifty breaking… Is it DIY-fixable or do you have to take it to a canon store to fix it?
Will the Zoom H1 be suitable for short films(3-5mins long) and/or documentaries(I’ll just mount it on the camera, or mount on a flash bracket)?
Also, I have a 18-55mm kit lens. After I add the 50mm f1.8 to my collection, what lens should Ii get?
