Just a quick note.  I met up with Juan Buhler on Sunday and had a chance to
briefly play with his istD.  We attached my K18/3.5 to the camera and I got
a chance to try the green button routine.  Literally, it's a snap to use. 
After just a couple of tries I can see how it would become intuitive.  So,
for those considering the istD don't be concerned about the green button
technique with K and M lenses.

The K18/3.5 is a very sweet lens on this camera.  While some may want a
wider AOV, or prefer zooms, the 18mm is pretty nice for lots of outdoor
shooting, and, more so than many other wide lenses (I'm specifically
thinking of the 15/3.5 here) it's small and light.  It's faster, I believe,
than the 16~45 that some here are considering, and probably optically
superior as well.  If you can find one, give it a test.  You may like it.
