Interesting that you have the 350/2.8 on the 'short' list... You could use
the 180/2.0 with the 1.4XA and 2XA converters and get a lot of coverage.
With the 2XA you would have a 360/4.0 which is pretty fast... and I thing
you could get the lens and both converters for about what a similarly clean
350/2.8 would run.
