Any card with a 40X write speed or faster will give you optimum performance in the camera. A faster card will download to a computer more rapidly if you're using a firewire or USB2 card reader. I use CF cards and have a variety of brands and speeds. They all perform just fine.

Hi Shel,

I use Sandisk Ultra II 512MB cards w/ the Ds. I cannot say what advantages the Ultra II speed has for me, however as I don't notice a speed difference btwn the Ultra II and a non-Ultra II 1GB Sandisk SD card. I have no experience w/
Lexar cards.

Hope this helped (not much),

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.
