After 15 weeks and 7000 shots: No problems, whatsoever (other than the ones
caused by my own mistakes).
My only complaints are still the kinda slow AF and the missing AE program
indication (I wish for an idication, showing Normal, Speed or Depth AE
program line in the viewfinder or top LCD,

Some 6600 shots so far.
I've had a couple of lock ups requiring removal of the batteries to
make it go away. Seems to be related to a combination of the focus
point selector being between positions and trying to do some other
operation, but I don't recall which.

My first lasted a year before being stolen, 10k+ images, no significant
problems. (see footnote)

apparent problems.
Footnote: I had the same problems that others have reported with the
feature which is supposed to sense the
No real problems here, even though the outside has got a few bumps and
scratches after one year of use. I usually carry it in an ordinary bag without
any protection.

the correct apertures on A lenses. 4.0 is shown
Returned it because of 15 hot pixels on 1/6 at iso200.

Dave,
I have two *istD's, purchased about 6 months apart. First was

has had any problems to speak of and I have shot about 15,000 frames
between them.

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

My first *istD couldn't find the flash card, so I returned it to BH. They
immediately sent me a new camera. I now have two *istD cameras that have
combined to take over 10,000 RAW images. I have not had any problems with
either camera, and I am very pleased with them.
