Wow, thanks for all the feedback .. Looks like I have to buy the lense soon

The 70-300 was 40% of + I got the 18-70 covered in my other less.. + what Qhotex said

Eh, I have the same set up as you except an A300, but I would hate to have to change between those two lenses whenever I wanted to go higher or lower then 70. But I guess it's all opinion.
And to Qhotex, 6.3/f isn't that bad. Unless you're shooting inside at that or at night it's not much of a change. Plus if you're shooting inside you don't really need 300mm.
As to get back to the original topic, a 50mm definitely is a good thing to have. I have a manual 50mm and still I love it, I've considered buying a 1.4/f 50mm with AF on it, but I decided to get my 28-300 before it.
