[QUOTE="Joseph Bautsch, post: 26222, member: 654"] Under those shooting conditions you probably need both zoom and prime to cover the lighting range and shooting distances. For a prime either the 35mm f/1.8 (or f/1.2) or the 50mm f/1.8 should do the job for on stage. For shooting off stage for the audience distance I would recommend the 70-200mm f/2.8 Nikkor. The 70-200mm is a bit pricey at around $2400 but you won't find a better low light zoom anywhere. Which to get first, zoom or prime will depend on which type of shooting you do the most. Close up or distance. And welcome to the Nikonites Community. I'm sure you will get other responses to your question. Hope you find what you need. Enjoy the site. [/QUOTE]
