Buy the 50-140 you are going to want image stabilization no question and I will not even say IMO.

Yes the 90 mm is a amazing tact sharp lens but with no OIS and it being a telephoto lens I know first hand you need a mono pod or something to give that little extra help because the lens is one of the larger lenses and can throw off the balance of the camera to lens

I will also suggest a handgrip or battery grip with the 90 mm and especially with the the 16-55 and most certainly with the the 59-140

I know the 50-140 is the best lens for the job. BTW you want to be able to recompose fast for what you are doing. I'd also get a second camera body if you can.
