What lenses do you recommend or plan on getting?

My adapter recommendations- http://www.dvxuser.com/V6/showthread.php?t=182477 you can buy resonably good adapters for every lens for the cost of one novoflex.
I have a full set of nikon ai primes from 24mm-180mm and they're great. I also have some M42 mount glass like the pentax 50mm f/1.4 smc takumar, russian jupiter 9 85mm f/2 MC, and tair 11a 135mm f/2.8
 
I shoot both ways;)

24-105L is perfect for outdoor, walk around shooting...as is my 70-200is 2.8...

But as mentioned, there is nothing prettier than primes...

I shot a wedding last weekend with the hvx200a and my 5d2 with the 85L and 50L. I just finished editing and waiting for Compressor to spit out my final as I type this. 85% of my footage in final is/was from the MK2. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong with my 200a....I'm going to read Barry's book again tomorrow and watch the DVDs. My 5d footage is just embarrassing my HVX footage...it's killin me! I'm assuming it's just the low lighting from indoors where that Canon really shines. It's been happening all summer....glad I picked it up!

I also shoot with the 135L and the 200L (2.8...and really an inexpensive choice for a piece of L glass at around $550!)...all Canon though. No experience shooting Nikor lenses. I do have the Sigma 50mm/1.4 and can't say enough good things about it. Great choice, also reasonable under $500....this would give you about 80mm on the 7d.

Good Luck!
