Will Magic Lantern work with it?

Also- do you know any Zacuto VF 3 suppliers in the UK?

Thanks!

Just ordered a 550D (t2i), wooohooo...

Now to get a zacuto 3 VF....

I'm getting the kit lens that comes with it.... What prime should I get, the 30mm or 50mm????

They're both good lenses. You've got to step back to get wide shots with the 50mm, you might now like that if you've shot 35mm. I got used to it and it's my prime lens, no pun intended. I'm going to get the Sigma 30mm too. I rented one and shot most of the film between the two lenses with a 24mm thrown in as well. Do you need to shoot in tight spaces?
