 The low kit is fairly slow -- the 50/1.8 is cheap enough I'd add it for
"low light" shooting; perhaps even a 50/1.4. 

 The fast kit has the 24/2, and indoors it's wide enough that it might work
for shooting interiors, if not people -- but if this is the 'expensive' one,
then you could definitely add a 50/1.4, or 50/1.2 for that extra bit of
light capture.

 (that said, compared to the typical wunderbrick with a 28-200 3.5-5.6 lens,
they're both marvels of speed.. I wonder how anyone _can_ focus through a
5.6 lens? I guess that's what autofocus is for..)
