[QUOTE="rocketman122, post: 436159, member: 14443"] I think for your needs of shooting situations any of them will be fine. picture quality against which other lenses? there is a reason why expensive lenses cost what they do. superzooms and high IQ are not words that go well together. you WILL get nice/good IQ, but if you dont want to sacrifice IQ, these are not the righ choices. superzooms are convenient and make it easy. but they arent up to par compared to fixed aperture lenses. the bokeh, the color, the contrast, sharpness. its a different level altogether. even a measly inexpensive 50 1.8G (or any version) will leave you speechless personally id buy a tamron 17-50 2.8 and tele zoom (55-200/70-300) and split that. but for trips and such it will more than fill your needs. u will be very happy. almost always it the shooters technique that wont take advantage of the lenses full potential anyways. if I gave an enthusiaist a 70-200 2.8 he will have some difficulty using it properly and extracting stellar images from it because hes just not used to the feel/weight/stability and the fast focus. like giving a person a ferrari car to drive. most wont know how to drive it well. regarding IQ...I remember when I fiorst started in weddings and I bought all 2.8 sigma glass. it was their "pro" EX line. shooting almost two years with it. being in that field you see other photogs pictures.
