But if your budget only allows for one lens for you to get started I think it will be too long and will restrict you too much.You state that you want the lens for parties, weddings etc, I think you would be better off getting a standard zoom for your first lens, e.g. 24-70, or the one Marcel has mentioned, the 24-120, you can still do portraits with one of these lenses. Then get a 70-200 next when your budget allows.</blockquote>
