Just got the new body and immediately put my 50mm f1.4D on the thing and started out the door for the day...shot some of this, some of that and ended-up at a gathering of folks with a similar interest...well, shot a bunch there and brought the thing home...card reader to folder to bridge and, ulp, it looks like it's raining pixels!!! I ran a large range of ISO settings, from 100 to 3200 and the same phenomenon appears. This image is at 3200 ISO...I hate to think so, but I'm pretty sure I'm sending 'er back to Adorama...could it be operator error??? Magnify to 100% and you can't miss it...

    uh-oh. maybe it was the card? try a different cf card and see if that fixes it. If not, definitely send it back. Was it a refurbished one from Adorama?
