And So Winter Came and the Light Disappeared, well almost:
I love my D3, there has been lots of talk about its usefulness above certain ISO's but here is why I love this camera like a small child.

2000 ISO 1/40 f2.8 tree lights

2500 ISO 1/80 f3.2 lamp only

6400 ISO 1/30 f2.8 lit by tree lights

Now that has change the game and I cannot wait to open a new world of light with this baby
