sorry didnt see that

yeah, SD or CF is the way to go

in the past, the more expensive digital slrs etc... took CF as it was faster/bigger but now with SDHC its not such a big deal (Get an SDHC camera or else you are limited to 2gb!)

Digital Single Lens Reflex camers (SLRs) typically came as compact flash due to the better data transfer rates. But as many manafacterers now have ranges that boast 20MB/s in both SD and CF it isn't such a big thing.

Something like a Canon Powershot would give you the felxibility of the Ixus but the power of the EOS - could be the way forward?

SDHC is the way to go. Card sizes vary between 1GB - 16GB for SDHC and 1GB - 32GB for CF. Although they do come smaller there's very little point in paying for anything less than one gigabyte.

Also be wary of some of the new HD ones, as they often need their own software to veiw and also download from the camera. However there are very few out at the moment so proberbly not such a big issue.
