almost every single one. it can be easily masked in software if the software exists to do it. the masking has to be run for the specific camera to find its hot pixels. Pentax evidently chose to leave it out and try to get higher quality sensors, but since the quality control is statistical, some bad ones slip through. ensuring none slip through would cost more than just replacing the cameras that come back.
