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.

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.

I was expecting it to shift a bit faster but that is the way it goes sometimes.
