Hi,
Does anyone know if the
Pentax ist ds 6.1 meg Digital SLR will be able to see a 4 Gig sd card ?
Noticed these cards are very cheap now !
I know the camera sees a 2 gig card !
Thanks in advanced....

Yes the 4Gb card can be used [ my DS runs version 2.00 firmware so not sure if the previous version work but its a free download on the pentax site] but the problem is you cannot format the card in the camera.

I did before i used it and the card would not work at all until i formatted it in the PC then put back into the camera.

i have put several thousand pics through the 4Gb Transend SD card so far with no problems.

check the thread in the camera "other" section
