When I was out shooting several nights ago in (B)ulb mode, the *ist D began acting oddly. Not sure if there's something I'm missing or if this is indeed something to be concerned about.

1. I could not trigger the shutter a 2nd time until the buffer had been *almost* completely emptied from the previous single exposure. In other words, I couldn't load the buffer with 5/6 shots and then wait, I had to wait after every shot. I was shooting TIF's.

2. While the orange busy light was on, I could not fire the shutter... except it seemed sometimes I could, as long as I had waited a significantly long time. When I downloaded my images, I found that a handful had been recorded as .jpgs instead of .tifs. The capture mode was never changed via the control dials to .jpg. It's almost as if the camera, thought it did not have the room for a .tif, so it shot a .jpg instead (hard to believe).

Has anyone else experienced these kinds of things?  Thanks.

Tom C.
