My most used sd card was a 2 gig 150X product. After use in the *istDs and the K10D, it's case began to break. (I unloaded it by removing it from the camera and plugging into a USB reader.) It began to fold up (literally) and the write lock fell out & was lost. I used some super glue, but without the lock, it is read only. I retired it and bought new stuff.
The 4 gig sdhc card was $17 or $19 and Class 6 speed. On looking it up, Class 4 is 5mb per second and Class 6 is 20 mb/sec. So I'm a happy camper... ;-) Regards, Bob S.
