How about getting a second hand 5D Mark II instead? It is a nice full frame camera and such cameras with less than 50k shots should cost really reasonable. They can have at least 300k shots on average before being serviced. An f/2.8 lens (or f/1.8) would be necessary for decent low light shots.
Depending on what you are going to shot, if you want to go with prime lenses (much sharper than any zoom lenses), I would recommend the standard kit lens Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 - the famous "nifty fifty", which is a cheap lens, yet very sharp. an alternative is Canon EF f/2.8 40mm STM ("pancake"). Both lenses should be around $100 used.
