I want to create videos similar to

I bought this lens with the camera however it doesn't do macro or zoom like the sample video

BrandComputar

Computar 12.5-75mm f/1.2 zoom lens

Also, when you recommend a Macro lens, let me know if I need to buy an adapter or a link for the adapter as I am new to this camera stuff.

Try adding in one or more of the CS- to C-Mount-Adapter Rings between your Lens and the Camera. Should make the Lens a Macro Lens.
You could buy those in the Krontech Store or on ebay and Co. for little money.
Also use A LOT of Light and try closing down your iris a bit if possible or you will only have a realy Little Area of your Object in Focus.

Hi. This guy also used an additional cs-c mount adapter and the result is what I want.

I'm also using computer 12.5-75/f1.2 and two cs-c mount adapter as you suggested, but I find it impossible to focus no matter how far or how close the camera is. Do I need to do some other adjustments? Thanks!

Problem with "Macro rings" is that, the depth of field or what is in focus is really small. Computer 12.5-75/f1.2 lens from the go have really tiny depth of field, stacking more cs-c adapters makes it shallow like caliper of paper. Additionally "macro rings" reduces light intensity of lens - f1.2 is no longer f1.2, but something lower.

For filming with confined space, or macro to be done, I'm using noname lens 2.8-12mm f/1.4 zoom, it is available in Krontech store.
It's focusing from 0mm! Yes you can focus on your fingerprint that is on front lens

I'm using it only on 12mm side. If you're not scared of little light dropout on corners at full resolution it's great lens.

Some test films made with 2.8-12mm f/1.4 zoom:

And it's CS mount lens, you have to use it without 5mm CS-C adapter, or you will have -∞ mm focusing depth, and black hole will emerge

I use a Samyang 35mm 1:1.4 lens with a Canon Adapter. I like it, it's super easy to handle and the camera looks was beefier with it :'D

I took this video with it for example...

... Okay I should say, that every video on my channel (except some of the first ones) where taken with this lens in

You can see here that the focus plane is just about 3 mm or so. In my eyes that's the beggist challange in filming with a macro lens.... Stay in focus
