Any lens would do fine as long as you use a tripod and a shutter release cable. If you want do handheld shots, I would recommend anything with a larger aperture than 2.8.

If you're on a tripod, don't forget to turn down the ISO and shrink the aperture a bit =P Well, depends on what you're taking a picture of at night
Way to success: 1. Get a motive 2. Put your cam on a steady tripod 3. connect Shutter Release cable 4. Pre-focus, set focus to manual 5. turn off IS 6. ISO 100, Aperture f8, shutter time 5seconds with 5 seconds increase between each shot 7. Be amazed

Is there an echo in here? Seriously, the OP question is so vague that I would venture to say, first buy of book on photography, then afterwards ask about how to shoot in low light situations. Like the other respondent stated, any camera and lens is certainly capable of shooting in low light. But given the wide ranges within the venue, the question itself is pretty open to interpretation. Is the OP asking about recording star trails? Or is the question related to shooting scenes in a well lit night market or sports stadium? But, if all you want is THE best lens for night photography? Then here: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/con...L-t8_7chMACFZTm7AodjiYAvg&Q=&is=REG&A=details It's only about $11,000 USD. Not sure if it would work on the nikon though, as it's a leica lens.
