Which lens in use? And are these Jpegs from camera or RAWs converted to Jpegs?

Upgrade to LR4.4, or download a trial for 30days, noise handling in that is a different game altogether from LR3.

K-5 and CZ 2/50 Planar-Makro, framed it this way with a bit of room to maneuver cropping wise and manually focused on the left hand side to lead in. Correct exposure is actually around f/4, iso400, 1/100s but this is f/13 and I pulled the detail out thanks to the K-5's pretty good DR.

Hahahaha, Robin owns the C and K and I have the A and CZ and we both have 43's.
Without doubt the easiest is the Zeiss for manual focus, its throw is heavier but beautifully precise so easiest to use if you have a few seconds to compose. The A will snap into focus as well (with a lovely bright viewfinder) but you're longing for the longer throw of the Zeiss in some instances. The K is the same but then you could be dealing with a darker viewfinder if stopped down. Cosina, it's nice, lighter the the Pentax K and A but lacking the silkiness and precision and ultimately the engineering.
I've used the K and A at available light gigs and soon settled into the zone, its actually one of my favorite photography genres, I think the Zeiss might be a bit unwieldy in that scenario... Must try it out however.

Exif is incorrect, its 50 instead of 85

K Series lenses seem to be the rave of the moment
I was expecting it to shift a bit faster but that is the way it goes sometimes.
