I'm thinking Tamron 18-270 VC might be the way to go. All the superzooms have the same distortion pattern, so might as well go for the one with the 15x zoom, right?

A bit pricey in Canada though, but if the only thing it sucks for is sports and indoors, it's probably the lens for me. I can pick up a fast prime as a complimentary lens for indoor. AF is a bit slow, but I think I can live with that too.

Maybe. Curses. Can't decide again.
