    As far as fast low-light lenses, keep to Canon; Sigma/Tamron/Tokina etc. tend to make the more popular zooms. Canon EF 35/2, 50 1.4, 85 1.8, 100 f2 are all good low light lenses on the less expensive side. Check that, I think Sigma makes a 28 1.8. For the best quality 24 1.4, 35 1.4, 85 1.2, and 135 f2 are awesome but $$$.

    Edit: If you want a zoom, I use a 24-70 f2.8 L all the time with my 20D at ISO 800-3200 for moderate to low light and get great results. Tamron 28-75 f2.8 is a much cheaper and also good option.
