if you don't know what you need to buy, then go with one of those all-in-ones and shoot for awhile.

THEN you'll know exactly what to buy.

I'd say get the 17-85 IS for now and shoot with that for a bit, then take a look at how you use the focal range and go from there.

The 50mm is a good lens and it's cheap but I think you'll soon find that it's too long for indoor people shots. It's good for low-light stuff, though.

Hmm... didn't we have a similar thread like this already? lol
