Best lens for video with NX1

Hi,

Almost got my NX1 Pro + 50-150mm F2.8 lens, hopefully it is going be here before X-Mass.
Going to take a lot of pics, and some videos; but I am not sure, what would be a best lens for the video recording of my kids. I know these S lenses are truly Pro. I would appreciate some advise here, as my experience with NX system/changing lenses is practically equals zero.

I have some experience in videography (see info below).

My budget is around $400 us.
Yes, I'm going to supply from Samsung NX line of excellent lenses, so please stick to NX line of lenses please. I know that grass is always better at my neighbour backyard and he says the same to me. Ha! Ha!

In a near future (after CES) I am planning to get NX 12-24 mm but I think it is a nice lens for the outside photo taking; not sure its quality for the video.

My experience is based on Sony HDR-SR12 video cam (really good one).
Taking video of my kids (5.5 and 8 yrs old) at home and some outdoor.
They are fast, often not cooperative, not listening.....but I want them on my video anyway, thus it will required recording from some distance.

Thanks in advance for any input here.

Really enjoy this forum for a remarkable advices and an experience sharing among members here. I am here every day, just for reading/info gathering about Samsung NX line of cams and lenses. And in my honest opinion, the NX line of lenses are good enough for most people here.

Sincerely

Richard
