I don't even own a DSLR - my son does - and I still like this discussion.

.... Will actually be an 80mm

Exactly why it's so good, it's got that slight telephoto effect with your
"victim" none the wiser.

+1 on the Nifty 50. One of my favorite lenses to shoot around with
because it's fast and light and un-intimidating.
Anyway, that being said, the 50mm prime will actually be an 80mm lens on a 1.6x sensor.

That's a nice overall lens Joe but not only is it big but those types of lenses are not very fast f3.5 means you'll have a hard time taking unobtusive portraits indoors. I prefer a Prime 50mm lens which is a perfect size for portraits and is F1.4. People also swear by a 35mm for inside as well but I really like the 50mm, it's also a tiny lens which doesn't make people nervous,

For telephoto I have a 75-300mm f4.5-5.5 but I really want a bigger faster lens than that, I also have a nominal macro lense but want a good one and am experimenting w/ reverse mounting lenses for that as well as adapting old manual lens'
