What lens should I use for video?

I am saving up for a Nikon D5200(with the 18-55mm lens kit).I am concerned on what lens I should use for video making. I need a good, or very decent lens that cost less than 300$. Preferably, a Nikkor lens. Any suggestions? Please have some support behind your suggestion. I am doing basic video making. Nothing extreme or action packed.

What Should I Charge For A Wedding Shoot?

So I am an aspiring photographer, I don't charge people most of the time, they usually pay me a "tip" but I don't ever ask for money.My goal is to one day charge, but only when I feel I am decent. Last year I did some engagement photos for a lady and she just contacted me today to see if I would do her wedding photography June 1st. She said her photographer cancelled and I was the only person she could think of. I will have to travel about 280 miles to the location, she said they would take care of the hotel for me which is a one night stay. I would start at 3 taking pictures before the wedding, the wedding is at 6 and her reception goes from 7-11.So basically taking photos from 3 to 11. I have a Nikone D7000 with an 18-105 lens. If I do this I want a different lens, the Nikon 50mm 1.8 lens. I'm on a tight budget right now so If I get this lens I'll be tight on my money until her wedding. I am not sure what I should charge her though. I am wishy washy as if I should do the photos. I'd love the practice of doing a wedding but also on the other hand I don't want to over charge her and not get enough photos. But I also want to charge enough so that it covers my travel costs and time taking the photos. Anyone with any advice please let me know I would like to privately e-mail for some pointers.
Added (1). Also, another reason I am wishy washy about doing the photos is because I don't want to screw up her pictures. Most people only get married once so I want them to be really good for her.

Nikon does not name a type error?

Include <multiCameraIrControl.h>

int onValue = 10; // specify how long the status LED is turned on
int delayValue = 5000; // specify interval between shots in milliseconds
Nikon D90(9); // specifies the camera model

void setup(){
pinMode(13, OUTPUT); // initialize pin 13 as an output.
}

void loop(){
digitalWrite(13, HIGH); // set the LED on
delay(onValue); // wait
D90.shutterNow(); // trigger the shutter
digitalWrite(13, LOW); // set the LED off
delay(delayValue-onValue); // wait
}

thats my code and I need a fix for it now and I just dont get why its giving me errors

Tips on manual mode SLR photography?

Recently I've been trying to get out of my comfort zone of using the auto modes on my Nikon D7000 and start using the manual mode instead.It is taking me a long time to get my head around it all. I understand what ISO, aperture and shutter speed do. But it takes me about 5 minutes to get the right balance between them all! I'm just not getting the hang of it at all! I feel like I should KNOW how much of each I need, rather then it being a 5 minute trial and error session.

Are there any helpful tips you could give me?

A old camera that my dad bought when he was a litle kid, İts name is Matsui?

Well when my dad was 11-12, he bought a camera from Saudi Arabia, he says its an antique but I don't really know because they sell the same camera on Ebay for 15-30 dollars but with diffrent name sometimes canon sometimes Matsui, my dad is now 37-39, and Im just wondering how much the camera is worth

Its the Camera body with a attached 50mm lens don't think it comes off if it does I don't know how also has an attachable flash that goes from 4ft-22ft , the Camera uses the old stuff film i think its called: D, (I'm a Milc/Dslr user) Its really light kinda feels toy like, my dad bought it 25-28 years ago doesn't remember how much.

so my questions are is the Camera worth anything? and also you know how the Company puts its name over the lens like ''Canon'' or ''Nikon'' etc.well on this camera it has Matsui so is Matsui the Company? or the Cameras name?

I found a link of someone that has it but instead it has Canon written on it (links under ıt might now show)

Added (1). I looked at the camera alittle more on the bottom it says

___Mera(I put a line there because its unreadable.)
''Model nom.: Camera ''A''
Made in China

Since it says made in China I'm guessing it is fake?

Also on the front is says Motor Drive and has a switch and ''Red Eye Reduction''

Possible reasons that the shutter button wont release?

I was trying to take a picure of a candle from a close distance with my kit lens(on nikon d3100).i was shooting at 55 mm with shutter speed 1/4, 1/20 1/60(i was playing with it, changing it).My aperture was F 5.6, iso on 1600, white balance auto, my focus mode was singe servo AF, my AF area mode was singe point AF, metering was on centre weighted..BUT my shutter wont release. When i pressed it donw nothing happent..My lens was on auto focus.and cause of slow shutter speed i have my camera on somewhere stationary.
This happened again.
Is it something on my settings?
Whats wrong if anyone knows.
It happens often.
Added (1). Hi..the candle was not lighted..it was just for decoration..i had my camera on manual mode..Is it because it cant gained focus?
