FS700 Lens Choices

I'm looking at the Sony FS700 and thinking of getting the camera without the kit lens. Many people have expressed issues with the expsure knob and lack of a firm stop on the focus ring. I know a popular lens choice is the Sigma 24-70 with a Sony MTF E mount adapter. I'm specifically looking for your blog where you talk about lens that rotate focus and exposure in the same direction as broadcast camera lens? I haven't been able to re-locate it.
I love your solution of putting a zoom lens on FS 700 and F3 cameras. I have a Canon J16aX8B with 2X and have been toying with using that as well.
Thank you for all the great ideas.
