What lens would you suggest getting next?

I have a DX frame Nikon and currently I have the 18-55 kit lens and 50mm 1.8G. I like portraiture both indoor and out, as well as landscape. I never photograph anything super speedy, or wildlife - the fastest things I photograph are pets and rarely. I'm not too fussed about running back and forward and I actually prefer my prime to the zoom… I would really quite like a super wide angle. I'm throwing in things here, there and everywhere actually sorry ha.
Anything you can suggest from the ramblings I've given, any brand!
Thanks so much!

Good all around nikon lens?

looking for a good all around nikon lens. Needs all the features. Needs be be a good wide angle and zoom lens for snowboarding or skateboarding. Auto focus is a must cuz ill be using this for video too. So far my favorite lens is the 18-55mm 1:3.5-5.6G kit lens that came with my d3200. It does this the best but i know theres better quality lenses out there im just new to photography cams.

current useless lenses i have:
-kit lens
-AF micro nikkor 60mm 1:2.8D
-AF nikkor 50mm 1:1.8D
-AF nikkor 28-80mm 1:3.3-5.6 G
Added (1). i mainly need the auto focus for video cuz i cant focus quick or good enough while on a skateboard, snowboard, or while moving. Need something that can do everything so i dont have to carry tons of lenses around me up the mountain. So a wide angle plus a good zoom lens would be nice
Added (2). thanks guys. Probably gonna look at a 18-200mm. Still learning bout lenses. This shits confusing as ****. Btw, my 18-55 kit lens does have VR. And i didnt buy all those lenses haha. The macro and 28-80mm i "borrowed" from my dads camera that he doent use and i stupidly bought the 50mm prime lens thinking it was something else
Added (3). yes i agree. I still like and use the 18-55 kit lens the most. Its the most useable for every day situations. Ive yet to see how a prime lens could be your "go-to" lens being that it doesnt zoom…haha…you might miss out on quite a few shots there.

Will nikon ever make a video camera?

will nikon ever make a dedicated video camera? Seems like they should enter this market being they already make the best DSLR cam out there. They have all the necessary experience so i dont see why they have started this yet
Added (1). what do you mean why bother? If youre saying that then theres no reason for sony or canon to make video cameras either cuz they both have a huge line of DSLR's that can shoot HD vid.

Will a Canon bayonet lens hood fit on a Nikon lens?

and vice versa? Say if a Canon and a Nikon lens had the same filter size and both used bayonet hoods, would you be able to swap em out?

Photography lighting and backdrop?

I am setting up a photoshoot to do with dancers. I have a studio space with great natural lighting, but I wanted a white backdrop and very strong lighting to get sharp contrasts and shadows. I don't have a lot of money to buy any expensive equipment, but I do have really bright painter's lights that I think could work really well. I just don't know what to use for a backdrop. Any tips (on the backdrop, lighting, shooting tips)?

P.s. I have a Nikon D3200

Thank you!
