The SMC F 35=70 f3.5~4.5 is a real sleeper and won't set you back much
more that $35. Sharp with few if any noticeable optical defects, (maybe
a touch of barrel and pincushion distortion at either end of it's zoom
range), it's kind of old timey in it's implementation of close focusing,
though it does it at the long end of it's zoom range. The other good
choice in a bargain lens that pretty much fills that gap is the FA
28-70mm f4.0, also very good though prone to having the rear composite
aspheric element separate into its component glass and plastic parts.
Well worth it's normal selling price of around $90. as long as you
understand that it might go tit's up at any time, even if it's just
sitting on a shelf.
The *ist Ds supports SDHC cards of up to 32gig.

I am about to take a trip and would like to have as much picture
capacity as possible with me Does anyone know what the largest sd
card usable in my IstDS is? Does it make more sense to use multiple
SD cards with 2/3 or so of max capacity instead?
I have 2 zooms, the Pentax 20-35 f4 and a Sigma 70-300 f4 Zooms. Any
suggestions for a lens in between these two.
