50mm ought to be enough for anybody
Having pondered over which lens to get for another few days I decided to go the classic route with a fixed lens. So I headed off out and picked up a Nikon N80 with a 50mm f/1.8 lens (I briefly considered the f/1.4 version, but couldn't justify an extra 150 GBP for a single additional stop). Having spent 2 days shooting off pictures I can honestly say there were very few occasions where I found myself wanting a zoom - its amazing what you can achieve by just walking towards / away from your subject ;-)
