So we know what how technical of a discussion to have, can you give us a bit more information about what your experience is with photography / videos, what lens(es) you have now, what you are filming, etc?

This is my first DSLR and I am recording weddings and parties. For the nature of these events, most of them have low light conditions. I also need advice of a gadget to record everything without changing SD cards. Thanks.

The solution is a bigger (higher capacity) SD card. 😃 They go up to 64gb and 128gb now which should provide A LOT of recording capacity.

How much do you understand about f-stops, shutter speed, and ISO? What exposure settings are you using now for your videos? In short, you need a lens that can open up to a larger aperture (such as f/1.8, f1.4 or f1.2).
Here are some guides that will be helpful in explaining these concepts for you:

Hi JFO ...I understand about f stops, that is not the problem. The problem in here is what lense you recommend, I want a 50mm f1.4 or f1.8...and there is a lot of differece in price between them, is there much difference in image quality? which one would you buy? is there any other lense you recommend? Thanks

I would go with the f/1.4

I wish you would have just said so earlier! 😃

I agree. If you can afford it, it has a wider aperture, better focus performance, and prettier bokeh.
