I don't get this, are you talking about $35,000?
Also putting a video lens on a DSLR doesn't change the depth of focus. Depth of focus is inherent to these 3 factors: aperture, sensor size, and focal lenght. If you want larger depth of focus you either need a smaller sensor (which is bad for light dynamic range) or more light. My plan is to get a lot more light and shoot with f8 maximum. I've been shooting with f5 this year and then the DOF is so narrow that it drives you crazy (I shoot solo and g/g porn, not gonzo style but not hollywood style either). Then for the really fancy shots, for example girl is on her back and plays with toy for 20 minutes and squirts, I can put the camera on a tripod, dim lights (or use HD filter), use f1.4 and get a very beautiful arty shallow DOF shot.
