That's true. Extreme low light is one situation where I usually mount
a prime, frequently the FA 50/1.4. Once in a while, I go with the K
85/1.8, although that lens is a bit long for indoor shooting on an APS-
C digital SLR.

So it appears the choice of lens/prime is also affected by your
shooting
style - a street shooter doesn't want to carry a bunch of lenses,
while a
nature shooter will, to ensure he gets whatever he sees, be it a
flower
bud or a grand landscape.
Just try doing indoor candid portraiture (= taking pictures of my
neeves) at f2.8.
The extra speed from the primes is very useful in that application.
