I use the FA*24, FA*85, and F*300 primes the most.
So the FA*24 and the FA77 or FA*85 would be a good choice. I don't need focal lengths in the middle as much. Some others have found the same thing, and you might too.
But if zoom is desired, the DA17-70 or DA*16-50 (or maybe Tokina AT-X 280 AF PRO 28-80mm f/2.8 or Tamron 28-75/2.8) are good solutions until the next "more perfect" zoom comes along. The prices are pretty reasonable compared to a couple of premium primes (even the DA*16-50, if you get it used). But it's hard to beat a zoom when you want very good (but quick and easy) photos to document the landscaping around a house or something - I really like my DA*16-50 for that. You just can't beat the convenience in that kind of a situation.
