I can't say about SD cards for the *ist DS. I can say that in any
application I've used the *ist D for, landscapes, snapshots, etc., with
regular speed 1GB CF, 40X speed 1GB CF, or 4GB microdrive, any concerns
regarding speed or performance is splitting hairs so fine it doesn't matter.
The only noticeable performance difference I've noticed is that it takes 3 -
4 seconds for the camera to power up with the microdrive, which is not a
concern of course for cameras using SD.
Really I can sum it up with this... how many times do you count
microseconds, kiloseconds, centiseconds, deciseconds? Can't tell the
difference? It'll likely be many times longer than that between individual
presses of the shutter release, unless your machine-gunning it.

Subject: Recommended SD Cards for istDs

Which brand and speed cards do you recommend for the istDs? I was thinking
of the San Disk Ultra II, or a comparable Lexar, but I've no "brand
loyalty" at this point.
Can the Ds use the speed of this, and similar cards? Having cards that
will DL a bit faster to the computer is nice, so it might be OK to have a
card that's faster than the ability of the Ds ... anyway, your comments
would be appreciated. Thank you.
