To me, it depends on the job, or the intention of the shoot. We shot a 
skating rink event last Sat. and I mostly used a 50 for portraits and a 
200 for skaters on the ice. I brought a 28/50/135/200 kit. A freelancer 
for the wash. post had his monster nikon 80-200/2.8 zoom on his F5 and 
shoe mount flash. My wife used both her 28-70 and 70-210 zooms. No 
single kit is going to be correct for every job. For the MLK Jr. shoot 
the weekend before, I had a 24/50/100 kit. I got a cover shot in the 
local paper from that shoot, BTW. My first!

Be seeing you.
