Randy, I'd say that the number of reports since Ricoh applied a firmware fix (v1.11) are minimal. They will have been hundreds of thousands of shots taken with K-3s since the initial problem was reported, I'd guess very few will have experienced a problem recently, and if they do the camera takes care of it safely. Yes the flapping is a bit disconcerting the first time, but in nearly two years of regular usage it's happen to me twice before the V1.11 update but never since. I've even been considering getting a spare for my spare as the camera works so well and the prices have fallen nicely...
