I'd seriously consider ISO 400, if you wish to have ambient exposure on the
background. Particularly with color neg film, you're better off slightly
overexposing 400 than slightly underexposing 200.
If you're shooting a small group in the foreground, the 550 will certainly
give you correct exposure and color. If you want one on-camera 550 to
illuminate a warehouse or some gigantic bit of machinery, we both know
it'll be inadequate.
