I'm finding that autofocus is getting mighty useful. However, I
can track moving subjects pretty well with the 100/2.8 and the
200/4.  Actually, it's exactly the same as focusing on the 2-4
screen in my OM body.

I think a bit of a bias is showing through. Maybe he's in an
anti-image-stabilization mood right now.  Those are good lenses,
though, and I haven't seen any gripes about the 50/2. Pretty
inexpensive too.  The 50-200 is currently out of my budget
reach, but someday I'll probably pick up one on the used market
(if they ever hit the used market...)
