Are the two lenses I have mentioned good for what I intend to do with them?

Thanks for being the first to reply. I have read your article..you are talking about the 5d mark iii while my budget can afford only a mark ii.Moreover,so many lenses mentioned in your article to the point that I'm confused!Sorry I'm just a beginner but I have done some research online though. What I deduce from your article is that for my close up shots like dialogue scenes,I need something like the 50mm 1.8 (very much within my budget) and for my panoramic shots I need something like the 24-105 mm(comes with the 5d mark ii kit). Is that correct?

Somebody must know something about this! This is a bit urgent as I'm about to make the purchase soon. Thanks again.

Hello everyone, Aspiring to take my filmmaking hobby to the next level,I have decided to purchase a second hand canon eos 5d ii.However,being on a tight budget,I have limited choices as to what primes to buy along with the eos 5d body. My question is,if I had to buy only one or two primes,what would be best for a short narrative?Knowing that in my short movie there will be two types of shots : close ups with very blurred background,and panoramic shots showing landscapes where things are happening.No zoom is involved in either types of shots. Very much in need for your help. Thanks.
