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. Ralph, I dont want a D5 as I prefer a smaller camera these days. Learning from my experiences with the D3, D700 and D300, I am thinking that I will wait to see if a D700 replacement is released e.g. a D900/770/710 or whatever

JK: 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. JK thanks for that I did ask Nikon NPS in London and they told me this was the quickest and would work well in the D5 or D500.

Can I ask a numptie question...... What's wrong with the existing card speeds? I've shot 9frame/sec bursts on the D3 and 15 sequential shots on the D750 and shot videos on the D750 using traditional (eg extreme pro) cards and not noticed any negative impact. What am I missing?

Check B&H - New York City - on your machine and see what shipping cost is. It may work out to be less. It's the new M Series Card and for me - makes my machine smoke. RS

That's even without 4K Video. You could argue that you won't use the large file sizes and never at full speed and would never contemplate filling the buffer with 100 images (less than 10 seconds) but in that case why bother with the D5... The D3 is much lower investment and you know what? It takes pretty good photographs. Just so my D200 doesn't get uppity; the D200 takes pretty good photographs too!!! ![]()
