Daniel,
You have to define low-light work to me. I customarily shoot in
'concert-like' settings; dark surroundings with spotlights on performers...
I do not have either of the lenses you mention. I do use the FA* 24/2
simply because it has the largest aperture. This way I can adjust the
ISO on the *ist D to keep the shutter, and to a lesser extent the
aperture, where I want it.
Basically, for me at least since I have had different people say
low-light and had quite a difference in EV, I need to know what shutter
speed you will be shooting at different apertures to see if the extra
stop and a half would be worth it for you.

Hi, just want to get some opinions. I'm planning on getting an istds
and a 28mm prime, and I like to do low-light work. Which lens would
you pick, the sigma 28mm 1.8 or the FA pentax 28mm 2.8? I'm used to
shooting at a very crappy-looking iso400 on a canon g3 at f/2, but I
figure i'll be getting a usable iso400-1600 (at last! haha). Is the
extra stop (stop and half?) worth it? They seem to be the same price
around the internet. Thanks.
