Thank you all for the reply.
I have reservation for some of the "quality" talks
but I'll reserve that for other times.
For now, I'm debating if I should get the 50-135 F/2.8 (about $800) or just a ~$350 prime (40mm f/2.8 or 50mm f/1.4, not sure which one), and get (maybe) a 200mm prime later.
My primary goal is to shoot for the kids (both portraits and in-action), with the need to do general photography too (since I cannot possibly afford every lens I may have a need for, my lenses have to multi-task.)
My K-x delivery was attempted today by UPS but I wasn't home
I did order it with the 18-50 kit plus 50-300. According to some feedback and samples on this forum about the 50-200mm and 50-300mm, the kit lenses are going to be good for me for a while since I'm newbie to photography/DSLR.
