2 gig is probably the highest you can use for A610 and this applies to SD cards from Sandisk, Kingston,Toshiba and Lexar.

There is one brand that claims 4 gb card is OK but I am not suggesting you try because 4 out of 5 brands listed 2 gb as the maximum.

Bukit is correct here. Anything above 2GB is an SDHC card (secure digital high capacity). The A610 isn't SDHC compatible, so you're stuck there.

But allow me to make an pitch for using several smaller cards, rather than one large one. Reason being, insurance. Any memory card can fail or become corrupted. And when you're on vacation the last thing you want is to lose the opportunity to take pictures until you can recover that media card with a software utility. If your card goes bad, swapping another one for it at that moment is of advantage so you can keep taking pics. Then, later when you're in front of your PC, you can use a utility like "F-recover" to get back your pictures and recover your card.
