michaeld120 Since you are the photographer with the department I assume you have the ability to get in fairly close. If you are able to get in close I would recomend a 24-70 f2.8. That is the lens I use almost exclusively. I have a 70-200 f2.8 in my bag but it rarely comes out since I am generally too close in for it to be effective. The 24-105 f4 may also be a good option since it has a little better range.
