I have a BMPCC 4K (without a lens).
I was considering the Sigma 18-35 f/1.8 because it seems to be recommended by so many BMPCC users.
however, I ended up on Ken Rockwell's photography website where he reviews the lens and doesn't really rate it so highly, which has now made me hesitate to get one.
In Summary, he said it's too sharp and has plenty of issues.
I want a lens to film a few short movies outdoors at sunset to dusk and a few scenes indoors.
I wanted a soft movie feel, and not the ultra-crisp blue-ray documentary feel.
Mostly its mid-shots and close-ups.
Can you recommend any other lenses I should look at ?
I'm looking at the lower budget lenses (perhaps $500 max)
I'm ok with 2nd hand.
Any suggestions?
