So what you're saying is that the *ist D does NOT have user customizable setups of the same order as the A2. On the A2, the 5 custom setups are *any* combination of user settable Record mode options .. not sets of custom functions independent of ISO, exposure mode, etc. Well, I certainly think that it would be a good idea if such a feature were included, even if I didn't use it much.
