Yeah I was thinking about using my 55-200 at 90, but again if I'm outdoors I don't think the length would be a huge problem. I am just curious about the background separation / rendering between the 90 and 56, because that isn't something I can replicate on my 55-200

The 50-140 is worth considering as well. You will get significantly more subject isolation at 140mm and f/2.8 than you will with either the 56 or 90 wide open. If care is taken with the camera to subject to background equation, the bokeh can be very nice.
