Higher ISO's and the need for fast glass?

6 months ago

The question I have is with higher ISO available in today’s cameras are fast lenses still really needed for low light photography? Can you get good results with a f5.6 at ISO 3200 or 6400?
Were the lenses with f1.4 or f1.8 primarily designed for low light situations or for situations where the photographer wanted a very shallow DOF?
