Cory, I'd go for a set of primes, such as DA 15 Ltd, DA 21 Ltd, FA 31
Ltd, FA 43 Ltd, and FA 77 Ltd. And I would go for A 50/1.2 as well.
As well I would suggest a Katz Eye screen and a good flash unit.
In zoom department you might want to replace your 18-55 with 17-70/4
which is said to be quite good.
Well, sans the zoom, this are the lenses I have or plan on having (DA 15
notably).

As a purely hypothetical , lets just say you had maybe $2500 to spend
free and clear of any guilt. Lets also say you were inclined to spend
said clams on new lenses. We'll say you have a K10, the DA 50-200 &
18-55, a FA 28-105 f3.2-4.5, and a FA 50 1.7 (there are some other
manual focus lenses but we're focusing on newer stuff). Further, lets
assume that we're going to buy new lenses from an online retailer
(probably Amazon) and they need to be available for sale now or at least
in a couple months. Assume we shoot lots of family-type shots (kids,
vacations, scenic stuff from camping trips, etc), some sports (racing,
football), and some more artsy or flower stuff on occasion. How would
you spend it?
I've been thinking:
90/100 macro (from whom?)
70-200 2.8 (Sigma? A TC to go with it?)
DA* 16-50 (it's maybe too big for walk around/vacation and I wish it
went out to 85mm)
Mmmmm Limited. But 43 or 31? 77? The new 55?
