Okay guys. We're a strength and conditioning facility with relatively low light.
I'm having the Canon EOS 70D and the Kit Lens.
Currently on our lower floor i get using manual 100speed a WHOOOPING 5000-8000ISO on the images.
Now the lightning can't be helped much. We do have additional ones for special cases but the day-to-day picturing does not use them.
Now we've decided to buy new lenses for this scenario.
My bet is on the Sigma 18-35mm F/1.8 DC HSM (Art) lenses.
Typically i ALWAYS SHOOT at 18mm on the kits. I can shoot at 20-30, but i prefer the 18 on the KITS. About 1-5 meters shooting, capturing the whole person is what i'm looking for.
WE WILL USE THEM FOR PICTURES AND VIDEO as well. Which bothers me because the Sigma does not have IS. We also have a frakin awesome Monopod:

So my take is that maybe, maybe we can stabilize the video with that. The thing is - often times the operator needs to move, because we're making some WEIGHTLIFTING MANUALs videos. Let me give you example:
We're using the RHODE VideoMic Pro as well.
Now other options as i see it are the:
Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM
Canon EF 35mm f/2 IS USM
I firmly believe the Sigma to be of superior quality, however i'm kinda worried about the VIDEOS and the IS thing.
Our budget is to about 1100$ for these lenses.
