That looks like the most bizarre sensor defect imaginable.

Subject: K20D - Hot pixel ?
After approx 3850 images, my K20D started producing a defect in the
images, not related to SD card or battery charge. It occurs at all
ISO's, all lenses, shutter speeds & apertures. Interestingly it is
not apparent in live view.
I've run the pixel mapping routine several time with no affect on
this spot.
It evidences itself as a noticeable bright spot near the RH edge of
the image (in landscape orientation), with a vertical black line from
top to bottom running thru the spot.
Its close enough to the RH edge that it can be cropped out with only
a small loss of image size, but I don't want to have to crop every
image.
The body will probably find its way to Pentax Repair, but I thought
I'd get some input from the collective minds on the list. Depending
on the cost to repair, this may push me into getting a K7.
Your thoughts are welcomed
