I wouldn't buy 50-200, then just take the 55-300 instead.
I am very fond of the da*50-135. High quality and after all reaches as far as the 200 did in full frame. I've never found myself very happy with cheap long zooms.
In my world anyway, when you get out to extreme telephoto land === 300 and beyond, your ability to control the scene and lighting is greatly diminished as is the option of using a flash and it's time for a prime.
Not mentioned in the request is a macro. I always feel half dressed for a shoot
without a macro handy.
