Some of us know, but Caveman may not, that if you buy an *istD that doesn't have the new firmware, the firmware is available on line. (On the Pentax website.) I don't know if it's the case that new ones do have it, Paul; I bought mine in mid-July and it came without the new firmware. Which I promptly installed that very evening. ERN
