[QUOTE="§am, post: 99188, member: 9187"] If you're taking pics of the kids playing etc, then you might not even the reach of the 55-300mm, a 55-200mm would suffice as you probably won't be that far from the kids anyway :) A prime is a great idea - the 50mm f/1.8G is fantastic, but also worth considering the 35mm f/1.8G, or even both :) The money you save on getting a 55-200mm would pay for almost all your cost towards the 35mm If you're not worried about the wider end too much, then the 24-120mm f/4 is a nice (FX) lens (£~800 though) But all these options, depends on your budget most importantly!!
