Are you sure? The first reports on the *ist-Ds that were posted here said that this ability was available (though by pushing the AE-L button, since there is no "green button") Maybe when somebody actually gets a *ist-Ds we'll know the real story. I know there's no mention of it in the manual. But there's no mention of "green button" mode in the *ist-D manual, either.
