Low lighting lense
What would be the best lense to purchase when using my Nikon D3000 in low lighting without a flash?
Low light shooting requires what is referred to as a fast lens. Fast in that it allows higher shutter speeds because it lets in more light due to larger aperture opening.
The smaller the aperture number the bigger the opening.
f/1.8 is bigger than f/2.8 and these are a lot bigger than f/22.
For low light shooting look for lenses in the f/1.8 or f/2.8 range and shoot at ISO 400 to 800 with noise reduction on.
