Instead of the Phoenix 19-35mm f/3.5-4.5, I would recommend the Tokina 19-35. Much better build quality, and optically better as well. The Phoenix is a Vivitar design, while the Tokina is their own design, based on the old 20-35mm. Another very good one (apart from the barrel distortion at the short end) is the Canon EF 24-85mm. The same optical design as the 70-210, and similar quality. Good guide! Instead of the Phoenix 19-35mm f/3.5-4.5, I would recommend the Tokina 19-35.

It is a great lens, well built, USM, and inexpensive. Nice list though, The EF 28-135 IS USM is beyond the $200 limit, but the similar Canon 28-105 f/3.5-4.5 USM can be bought for under 200.

At a price of $400, however, it is far out of the range of this list. ;) That is a really great lens I myself own. At a price of $400, however, it is far out of the range of this list. ;)
