Canon S5 max memory size & cases for S5 with lensmate

[DaveJH]

I have just purchased a Canon S5 and have ordered a lensmate adapter.

Two quick queries

1) what is the maximum size SDHC memory card that can be used with this camera- the manual gives no hint and one review states 4G ?

2) Any recomendations for a case for the S5 with lensmate adapter ?

You can certainly go up to 16G SDHC cards. I haven't read on someone using 32G cards, but I don't see why they'd be a problem.

I'm not sure what case I'm using, I'll check when I get home.

If you want a less snug fit, go with the 5683...

Thanks for the quick responses and very helpful information.

I have tracked down a supplier of the Tamrac 5682 here in the UK, and I shall try a 16G card (or 8G SDHC card depending on price).

Thanks agian for the advice - good forum.

As long as the camera supports the SDHC format, you can use any size you'd like.
