Inside or outside? Day or night? The more info you can give, the better we can answer your question.

Definitely need more info. I shot my son's graduation with no flash @ ISO 1600 and my 85 f/1.8. Picks turned out ok.

I will be using a 30D and/or 5D, 580EX II w/ a better beamer, a monopod and 100-400L to shoot a friends graduation in a dark arena.
