Ron,

I guess it depends what are the interests in photographing.

Right now for me with the 8- and 10- year olds, I use the
24, 50, 35-70, 100 focal lengths the most.

I have the 180 and 200 but they are rarely used at this time.
But I did manage to carry 24, 50, 100, and 200 to the Disney
World two weeks ago.

Regards,
Jim Terazawa
