I mentioned temperature since my A1 gets noticeably warm to the touch 
with lots of shooting over several hours and the screen and anti-shake 
left on continuously.  I don't know what's going on at the sensor but 
the CF card gets much hotter than the camera body.  I would guesstimate 
that the CF card is at maybe 110-120 degrees F (43-49 C) after the 
camera has been on continuously for 3 hours.  Since I have the optional 
dual battery grip I can run for a long time with everything powered up.

But I've never compared the exposures from a cold vs. hot camera and I 
rarely shoot at anything other than ISO 100 since the noise gets bad 
very fast at higher ISOs.
