Charles, Had a problem with the door on my *istD (My dropping it). Repair was $200+ on the weather sealed door. Hope they have improved design since then. Repair had to take apart a large part of the shell to fix it. I should have just used black duc tape after the super glue failed. Regards, Bob

That's pretty much how I used the K20D after it's first year, the hook/latch that holds the door closed snapped off, which of course is where the interlock that turns off the camera when the SD door is open, is located. When I recovered the hook I placed it back in the latch and held it in pla
