Hi David, enjoy your new K20D. Looks like you've gotten good advice on what to check on your camera. Unless the individual unit is a dud, I think you'll be very happy. I really enjoyed the upgrade from my K10D, especially in terms of higher ISO shots.
(David, the following isn't aimed at you. You've stated your reasons for checking it out during the return period, which is perfectly reasonable. I just found the following bit humorous.)
As for the other theme about looking for trouble with a new camera, I also agree. Some people just go overboard. My new personal favorite seen on another brand camera forum was a guy that bought a new camera, immediately ran the hot pixel mapping, and then wanted to know how to
unmap his mapping because he couldn't tell with a before and after shot how well the pixel mapping worked.
Of course, his new camera was working just fine, but he was really indignant that he couldn't unmap his pixel mapping. He just knew there was a problem that he had somehow missed, and now his opportunity to complain about it was gone.
