I shoot a lot of events and use a 5D and 24-70 mostly. I started with a 30D and 17-40 and found the going hard. IS doesnt really come in to it at gigs as it may stop your camera shake, but wont stop your subject from motion blurring. IS is more handy at the longer focal lengths.
To be honest, you need as much help as you can get in the low light. Therefore good low light body such as d700, d3, 5D, 1D are really the go if you want to be selling shots. You might get away with a 50D or d300. Primes are great for low light but can be restrictive when you have limited vantage points. You dont want to be swapping lenses amongst the crowd. f2.8 zooms are the go, dont settle for a f4. f2.8 is twice the amount of light as f4. All this is irrelevant anyway if you dont understand the fundamentals of photography. Its an expensive hobby so you should try and limit your upgrades as much as possible.

Got myself a Canon 450D SLR Twin lens kit for around $1350 from JB HiFi.
Amazing camera!! Can't go wrong with Canon. |

Just ordered a 50mm f1.4 prime... bargain price (300ish) for what is supposed to be one of the best lens and a 'must' own for any pentax owner.
This will be my first decent lens, I've always had basically crap ones still now. |

Anyone heard anything good about:
Tamron AF 18-250mm f/3.5-6.3 XR Di II lens Sigma 18-200mm F3.5-6.3 DC OS vs Canon and Nikon 18-200mm lenses? I heard that the standard twin lens kits that are selling cheap these days are not that good. The lenses above are cheaper or as cheap as the Canon and Nikon equivalent 18-200 lenses.

i try and stay away from any lens that has the Fstop range changing. at the end of the day your quality is going to be sticking with Canon or nikon made Lens.
