Nikon D3 low light performance

Shooting the Nikon D3 in low light is more feasible than with any camera I’ve used before, and mating it to the Zeiss ZF 35/2 Distagon works great as an available-light combination. Sharpness is amazingly high considering the 1/40 sec shutter speed (handheld), and f/4 aperture.
