I've had my istD for about 7 months. Taken about 2000 images with it in temps ranging from 95 to around 20 degree F, in snow, sleet & rain.
So far - no malfunctions at all, some problems with my ignorance though. I have no reason to suspect it won't perform as well as the other 6 Pentax bodies I've used over the last 36 years.

I know a few have complained but i think for the most part the majority have had little or no problems. Thanks for your time No obligation<g> Keep in mind my choice to aquire the D is for a walkaround digital,not so much for work.
