I'd recommend a DA18-55, DA55-300, and one prime. I like the FA50/1.4 for value, I think the DA35 is too slow. I'd recommend a FA35/2 if you don't want a FA50. The other bonus is the FA series have aperture rings and are FF, something I didn't realize the importance of until later and now I'm having to convert my DA's to FA's where it makes sense.
Not often I disagree with Twitch but I definitely do on the 28/35mm being close. That's a 25% difference in FL and a big difference in wide lenses (not for teles) so room for both in the bag (28mm as a landscape lens and 35 is more a walkaround).
I have the A-28 and to be honest I am totally unimpressed (still have it, will sell it), I bought a Contax Zeiss 28/2.8 to replace it and yes, it was more than 3 times the price but absolutely worth it ... it blows the A-28 away.
The F 70-210 is a good lens (I have one but rarely use it, fast but noisy AF but a sharp lens) but I'd also consider the 55-300 (NOT the DA-L version) as it is amazing value for money at not much more than the F 70-210.
That said looking through your posts and budget I'd say you may be better off going for quality rather than quantity otherwise you'll be on the path I took of constantly upgrading (and wasting both money and shots) until you find the lenses that satisfy your IQ needs. If that is the case then the 50-135 would be a great start and cover many focal lenses and then maybe an FA24/2 to give you an excellent, much wider, lens.
