Looking at your list, I'd be tempted to get simple and
buy the new Tamron 24-135 or Pentax 24-90, keep the M
50 just for the speed, then later maybe spring for
something long like the F* or FA* 300/4.5.
Note: It you want to use an AF lens in MF mode a lot,
try one before you buy. Some AF lenses have a better
manual focus "feel" than others.
I don't mean to be negative, but of the lenses you
currently own, there is not one truly excellent lens in
the bunch (I know - I own or used to own almost all of
them).
I'd buy just one really good lens, whether prime or
zoom, and say the heck to everything else. There *is* a
discernable difference between the better optics and
the also-rans.
