Don't check it out if you bought an *istD. I'll repeat: The *ist D uses
CF Cards. CF...CF...CF.

The *ist D is on the way, but without a card. What do I get? I'm
quite sure any number of SD cards will work, but what's the best
value for money? I've just been talking to a dealer who offered me a
Sandisk 512 Type II card but I'm not sure I know what he meant when
he said it would go into my USB port? Does Sandisk sell cards with
readers? Or some kind of an adapter? Anyway I'd like to know what the
recommended cards are so I can get one before the camera gets here.
Does the camera have any internal memory? I know there's a buffer, of
course, but cannot find out if the camera will work at all without a
card.

All I know is what I read.
Check this report out before you make up your mind.

The image of that card seems to show a rather long SD card, but never
having actually held one in my hand, it's only a guess...
Good luck with the *ist D!
