Thanks Graham.
I can wait until end of April.
If I see the D500 is available earlier elsewhere then if Amazon dont fulfill then I can cancel up to point of dispatch when they charge my card.

Does anyone have a D500 NEF that they can share with me for my RAW software testing?
If you do then please PM me.

Thanks

Sorry no NEFs yet but an other local photographer friend had hands on with one last Monday and said it is lighting fast compared with any SLR he has ever seen. Like me he also has one on order.

JK,
Some consolation: the PDF D5 manuals have appeared, some 650+ pages to keep you entertained.
Regards, Gilbert

Gilbert it is interesting that most of the postings are on the D500 with far less interest in the D5? I have just purchased a Lexar Pro 32GB XQD 2.0 2933x card with Speed 440MB/s ready for my D500. These very fast cards now down a lot in price, this cost me with card reader just under £100.

Graham,
re: D500 not D5
This topic is about the D500, I have held a sample, but sofar none have been delivered.
re: now down a lot in price
I agree, here in Holland that came with the advent of the Sony G series, and a retailer setting a very interesting price (although holders of any amount of stock may have thought otherwise).
E.g. a sony 32-G-type retails for something like Euro 200 including VAT.
Regards, Gilbert

Graham,
I was looking at getting one of these cards Lexar Pro 32GB XQD 2.0 2933x (440MB/s) card like you have but I have read that they dont work (or not very well) and you need to use the Lexar Pro 32GB XQD 2.0 1400x (210MB/s) which is a slower card. 
It might be worthwhile checking with Nikon NPS about this.


I am waiting to get my D500 in my hand before I get an XQD card,  I have purchased 2x32GB Sandisk Extreme (90MB/s) SD cards.  However undoubtedly XQD is the card to get if you want to do video and also fast sports action.

JK - I have a pair of Sony 64GB M Series Memory Cards and they are running very well. I have the D5 with 2 Slots and either single slot performs well as well as using double slots. The cost is $96 america each. Much faster taking & down loading.

The D5 is 2 Weeks old and I like it more than the D4 & D4s. Will put a few pictures up when I figure out how to do it.
