...for a DSLR newbie;)

I currently have a 350D with the 18-55 kit lens and a 70-300DG Sigma lens.

Looking for a good little all rounder lens.

Don't want to spend too much just yet, so up to around £150 would be the limit.

Would I be best to grab a Canon EF 50mm F1.8 for around £65 and just add that to what I already have, or what would you recommend?

Was also looking at the Canon 55-250 IS, even though it's a little outside my budget, and also a Canon 28-105, but really not too sure what to do.

Will be mostly taking pics of my kids, but also would like to be able to do some landscape shots etc.

Thanks a lot for amy advice, I am a total novice at this and would appreciate the help from those in the know. :)
 
The sigma 17-70mm is quite an all rounder for about £200.

With the 18-55mm do you feel limited by it's reach or closeness at all, if so, which more?
 
its over your pice range but i think if u can spend the extra cash you must go for the tamron 18-250 best all rounder ever lol well i got it the other week and it has just about lived on my cam since then and i have taken all diffrent shots with it and am very very happy and think its worth the money

check my flickr from shots using the lenses or just look round the internet its suck a nice lenses
