[QUOTE="Krs_2007, post: 165248, member: 12948"] 50 or 85 is a really good start for low light. I used my 85 for basketball this past season with really good results and these smaller primes can be found at a really cheap price. The 50 1.8G is a couple of hundred dollars. The 85 1.8G eluded me and I went with a 85 1.8D which will work on your camera as well. For indoors you will have to play with the ISO and shutter speed to compensate for the poor light of indoor sports. I did shoot some with the kit lens when the lighting was better and was pleasantly surprised. No they wouldn't make the cover of SI, but I liked them. Any of the 2.8 lenses are going to be a great investment and will last a long time, but they wont produce great pictures unless you really know how your camera works. Take lots of pictures and use the EXIF data to learn from. [/QUOTE]
