David,
My first *istD developed this fault. When it was repaired they used an
upgraded circuit board. This may mean that they knew it was a weak spot
and have fixed it but didn't think it was worth a recall. I don't know
when they changed the board but it was in the first year as I got one of
the first D's in Australia (first shipment released for sale) and had it
repaired under warranty.

Reading about Don's problems with his *istD and built-in flash has

My *istD developed a similar problem while using the built-in flash - no
charging, coupled with apparent draining of the batteries and refusal to
trip the shutter. The flash charging circuitry is obviously damaged and
it needs a repair.
If this is an unfortunate one-off then so be it, but if this is a common
fault I'll try to persuade the retailer to fix it for free (of course,
warranty has expired ...).
So - how many other *istD owners have had this problem?
