[QUOTE="piperbarb, post: 136110, member: 12214"] I am in the fast lens camp. I love a fast lens, especially a prime with a shorter focal length, and low ISO. One of my favorite lenses is the 85mm f/1.8. You cannot beat fast lenses for low and available light photography especially for indoor situations. I agree with Sam, that for a longer zoom, f/3.8-4 should be sufficient. I wouldn't want to lug an f/2.8 tele-zoom through the woods for hours. [/QUOTE]
