Yeah - it's just like computers - they're not all ones and zeroes - g.

Is that a signed or unsigned integer?

Here in the former East Bloc we used a great technique to make
some stubborn stuck electronic thing work - hit it with a hammer few
times. Worked quite well on TVs. Although, I must add, you have to
know exactly _where_ to hit...

Good light!

You have to 'love' electronics.

Yes, I still live.
I was recently in south Florida.  I tried to use my *ist D for some 
shots later in my stint.  Unfortunately, it would not recognize the 
compact flash to shoot a picture.  Amazingly, I could view the images on 
the card.  I tried the usual removal of the battery - I even removed the 
batteries overnight - it made no difference.

I resolved to sending the camera to Pentax.  Being that I use the camera 
at work, and prefer to use it rather than the point-and-shoot digital 
they have I decided to go ahead and get another one.  I was hoping to 
hold out until after PMA to see if there was anything worthwhile to get 
digitally.

Anyway, I went to my local photo store - I feel the need to keep them in 
business rather than searching for the best deal over the interenet - 
and asked to buy their *ist D.  It was a kit, so I had to buy the FAJ 
18-35mm :-(  I am not a fan of zooms.

When I went home that evening I tried my original *ist D - I had tried 
it once I had gotten home from my trip.  Well, as luck would have it, it 
worked fine.  I needed a backup anyway so I decided to keep the second 
*ist D.  I am sure my photo store was happy for that.

I will press with my original and occasionally use the backup to 
exercise it.

Being an electrical engineer I have seen this happen too often with 
electronics.

Just thought I would share my experience,
