Glad you like the camera. Two observations.
One: if you underexpose at all, you increase noise dramatically. Use
EV if you have to but nail the exposures in camera. I get good results
with the K7 at 3200. At 400, the noise level is indistinguishable from
200.

Well, that is a lot of information...in regards to the green button -
if you are shooting manual, you are missing out on one of the best
features of Pentax - HyperManual. What this does is the following:
There is a setting on your camera for behavior of the green button
when shooting manual.

Nope - Tav adjusts the ISO to expose correctly, based on your settings of
shutter speed and aperture. It's completely different from HyperManual,
which uses the current ISO.

No - it's exactly the opposite of Sv mode.
In Sv mode you set the ISO (directly, using a thumb wheel, not by drilling
down into the menu system), and the camera sets the shutter speed and
aperture.
In TAv you set both the shutter speed

Leica M9 with a 35mm or 40mm Summicron (f2.0) of some description
would be ideal.
However, in a more realistic vein, I'd love something like a Sigma DP2
