I've had problems with my Nikon D1h not turning on the monitor when I hit the review button, and occasionally firing a frame that does not expose, almost exactly like the *istD experience you mention. Removing the battery and replacing it solves the problem. The Nikon seems to have a pretty intimate dialogue with its batteries, so it may be fussier this way. DJE
