High Capacity SDHC in cameras other than Pentax: any info?

Asher Kelman

OPF Owner/Editor-in-Chief
Phil Askey in DPreview.com writes "Pentax Japan has released firmware updates for the Pentax *ist DL, *ist DL2, *ist DS and *ist DS2 which allow these cameras to use the new high capacity SDHC cards. SDHC cards have the same form factor as SD cards but allow for capacities of 4 GB or greater (by using sector addressing rather than byte addressing). Having recently introduced this feature via firmware for the K100D Pentax has also announced that they are 'preparing' a similar update for the K110D which will be released on September 14."

Pentax *ist DS, DS2, DL, DL2 & K100D users to know that Firmware V2.01 is out here:

So what information is there on 4GB and 8GB SHDC card support for other cameras.
