^how much are those and which one do you recommend getting?

im thinking about getting a 18-200 so i dont have to carry my 35-70 and 80-200 around all the time lol
everyone tells me i shouldnt do it because of "bad quality" but i really dont mind at this point because of the inconvenience. im only taking pictures of casual events, assemblies, parades, etc. will be working with not alot of space lol. basically i need
1) a daily "get shit done" lens (wider and greater range than the 35-70. 35-70 is pretty good sometimes but really sucks to work with. its loud, af is way slower than manual focusing and sometimes it doesnt even work. im getting a sigma 17-70 this weekend but like i said i need something thats all around so 18-200? willing to spend 300-400 on this one.)
2) a lens that can zoom even farther but quality doesnt matter as long as i can get peoples facial expressions
@!MiKrofT yeah haha those are what i was talking about. which one do you recommend?

tia you guys
