Originally posted by Rondec I don't really see the point. The speed of an SDXC card wouldn't be useable and size-wise, 16 gigs is plenty for a camera that doesn't shoot video.
That said, Pentax did go and up date a lot of the old cameras, all the way back to *ist DS to be able to use SDHC cards after they were no longer in production.
Well, speed-wise is not a big deal, they're backwards compatible.
But I see your point with the older models not doing video. Granted, I wouldn't want to shove 1 or 2TB into my camera, but putting in say 64 or 128GB is definitely something to consider. Especially if shooting all raw and out in the field for a length of time.
