are very interesting. :-)

I'm considering my digital options, within the well-under-$500 range, and 
wonder about the DS and DS2 bodies. While they lack shake reduction and sensor 
cleaning, both accept AA batteries and would not seem mismatched in my bag. Big 
question so far: do they accept SDHC cards? Not just 2Gb cards, but 2G and over 
SDHC cards?

Pentax released a firmware update to the DS that would allow the use of 2G 
cards, but the compatibility of pre-HC readers and SDHC cards depends both on 
hardware and firmware - so even if Boz' page list both as SDHC capable I'm 
wondering if any of you is actually using SDHC cards on the DS/ DS2 cameras... 
and how many Gb.

I'd like to go for a k20d, or at least a k2000, but buying a DS/ DS2 would 
leave me with a little more to spend in lenses... probably the Sigma 10~20 we 
discussed. Not an easy choice, but I believe I wouldn't lose much going with 
the DS/ DS2. Comments?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Luiz,

I popped a 16GB SDHC A-Data card into my *ist-DS I leave at work (powered happily by Eneloops, BTW). Other than the frame counter showing 999, it all works fine.
