The issue Nikon's been having with the early production D200s isn't
the sensor itself. It's in some of the supporting hardware and
adjustable/controllable, within limits of course. People who are
experiencing a problem are being told to return their cameras for a
service to eliminate it. From what I was told by a Nikon tech, it's
simply changing some small setting or resistor.
I think the choice of sensor is excellent. By the time Pentax goes
into production on it, all the kinks with the components should be
well known and easy for them to eliminate in the final product.

a problem.
