It will vary depending on the type of photos you take and the resolution that you take them at. The more pictures of very few color changes in them will take less space than one of a kaleidescope of mutliple colors which would be larger. A pic at 640 x 480 is going to take less space than one of 1280 x 1024. A .bmp will take more space than a .jpg, a .tiff will take more space than a .jpg and a .gif will take little space but quality suffers. The best all around pic for most people is one that is 1024 x 768 in a .jpg format. You would have to take the average on the type of picture content there is and go from there. I would say close to 3500 pictures.
The only reason regular SD cards are as big as they are is so that they're easier to handle. The electronics inside are identical. You can stick a micro SD card in a SD carrier and use it in a digital camera. I have an 8G card in my K-5, and it holds about 500-1000 full-resolution pics, or a couple hundred RAW files. I never get anywhere near the capacity of the camera.
it will hold up to 2000 photos but you dont want to store more then 1000 or so. The reason being is the more photos you store on your card the more room they take up. When you get to a certain point the card cant hold anymore photos but you are still taking them. When this happens the pixls in your photo will be brought down resulting in a fuzzy or pixilated picture. The more photos you have on your card the more this happens and there is no turning back. My sugestion is to have two SD cards so they dont fill up (you can get them really cheep at walmart or on ebay.) If you take a lot of pictures I would go and get a CD made of all the pictures on your card about once a month or so. That way you can organize your photos and you dont have to worry about your card or cards filling up.
Your Advanced User Guide shows you exactly how many images you can shoot. Have a look on page 156. The figures are based on a 512MB card (2GB is approx. 4X this) so just multiply the figures by 4.
From this chart, you can see that you will be able to shoot around 232 images per 1GB (when shooting in the best quality and resolution of... Superfine/Large). So, 2GB will allow around 460 images.
If you are only shooting in Fine/Large, then you should change it to 'Superfine/Large' if you want the best quality your camera offers (I would recommend you do this).
Another way to know how many images you have shot and how many more you can shoot, is to look at your LCD display information (Page 18 of your user guide).
That depends largely. Most JPEG files (most commonly used pictures and the default saving format for most cameras) are around 750 KB each, so your card can hold 2500 of these. Other formats include:
GIF, usually smaller than that, but sometimes animated.
PNG, usually bigger than that as it is normally with high resolution, used for high quality animated pictures on the internet.
Bitamp, the default saving format for Microsoft Paint, extremely heavy, but most colorful.
Don't worry about its capacity, it can be almost never full unless you record lots of videos.
When you put your card in the camara it will tell you how many pictures you can take. But remember if you shoot video, it wil;l use it up a lot faster.
it depends on what type of pics u r taking. if you take RAW then it will hold less, but if you take JPEG images then it will be much higher. it also depends on the MP and all that fun stuff. but if ur taking Large JPEG immages it should hold around 2000

Good luck.

In conclusion around 2000 minimum.
I hope I were of help to you...
It's not 2,000. I have a 7.2 mega-pixel camera with a 2g card and i can take 1000 pics. So your is about 800 pics
It all depends on the resolution of the photos.
The higher the resolution, the bigger the file size.
The bigger the file size, the fewer the files that will fit on the card.
When you put your card in the camara it will tell you how many pictures you can take. But remember if you shoot video, it wil;l use it up a lot faster.

That information is in the back section of your manual.
