Re: Rearranging my gear lineup

You are correct.  If you are shooting all those sports you need the 100-400 and / or the 50-140 with 1.4 TC.  But that is very expensive and outside your budget.  So yes, the 55-200 is the obvious choice and is far superior to the non XF lens choices and super-zooms.  Yes it focuses faster and is just a better lens.  The 55-200 is a great way to get 300 equivalent.  You will be happy with it at that price point.  It is a very fine little lens.  It is also great for travel.
