<rises to challenge> Okay, just did a range of tests on my D60, out of curiosity. With body cap in place, I exposed for: 1/30 sec at 100 ISO - can't see any stuck pixels, nice and black, even at maximum magnification. 1/30 sec at 800 ISO - 1 stuck pixel 10 seconds at ISO 100 - 2 stuck pixels 10 seconds at (max) ISO 1000 - 12 stuck pixels.
