Originally posted by Gampa Yeah, 1GB cards are scarce and are becoming too small to use in new cameras. I think it's perfectly fine to format larger cards to 1GB and you can always reformat them to their manufactured capacity size later if you get a newer camera that uses larger cards. 2GB cards are plain cheap now and even 4GB cards are relatively inexpensive.
I have seen some less than 1GB cards but their cost would only be a bit less than the larger SDHC cards.
I almost bought one of those cameras just a few month back and ended up with the W80 intead.
I liked the size and how much they go for in the used market.
