These ones have those built in collapsible lenses. Short of if you have an old one/get one used for a VERY good deal etc, i would recommend either buy a proper DSLR / Mirrorless Camera with the removable lenses and whatnot (or a Cinema Camera like the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera etc…or just use the camera in your Smartphone .

Your smartphone/cameraphone is always on you (and advantage dedicated cameras don’t have) and most modern ones are pretty great or at least GOOD ENOUGH in most cases.

Only real downsides are ISO (Some get noisy in low light, like at night or in some poorly lit garage/warehouse etc) and Zoom (Only Digital Zoom and a few other cameras for Macro / Telephoto etc if you’re lucky/burnt some money on a fancy phone

While i don’t think shooting Major Movies on cellphones is the future, at the same time short of the aforementioned weak points (At Night/Far Away from the Subject etc) most people aren’t going to notice/geek out about what a video was shot on (Short of MAYBE if you do Vertical Video , especially on platforms not made for it) / geek out about Aspect Ratio etc so as long as the composition is alright, the Audio is good, and the scene is decently well lit most people won’t notice/care
