Thanks Dee Dee...those photos look like they are in a very similar place and they are the quality I would want.
Is that Canon or Nikon that you use? The canon looks to be discontinued.
What ISO do you usually use for these indoor shows?
I doubt I will be able to afford any of the other 1.8s so I might have to buy a 2.8.
Do you find the primes easy at these shows or do you ever wish you had a zoom instead?

Appreciate all the help!
