Music Video at DVinfo.net

I am starting Pre-Production for a music video soon,
The video will feature a band playing at night in the middle of the forest.
I need to make a lighting plan for the shoot, and I want the video to have a very high contrast, "blue steel" look. (gonna use HMI's most of the time, with Kino flos for fill)
I will be using my EX-3, maybe with a PS Technik Pro 35mm adapter.
I wanted to know how many stops I am losing with this adapter, and what are the changes to the camera's FOV?

BTW: Does anyone here know of a music video with a similar night scene I can look at for reference?

Arbel.

I would just go to the rental house and test yourself, so you know what to expect. As for any similar footage, do worry about matching anyone else, make it your own.

Thanks...
I will probably end up getting someone for the lighting,
so I won't need to worry about that.
