Eric wrote:I think this is a case of horses for courses. I find my D600 is very good but the AF in low light is not as good as the D3S. My aim would be to get a ?D900? to replace my D3S so I have a higher MP and better AF camera than both my D3S and D600. I will then release my D3S, D700 and maybe also my D600. My D300S will move to underwater use once I get my D500. My D800 is somewhat of an anomaly as I find it noisy e.g the mirror slap is very noticable to me.. Also it has too many MP for every day use, but it is great for very detailed work such as landscapes.

Eric have only had the camera 2 days so 80-400 has been on the D500 and it seems to work well but need more time to see. However would think the big 500mm would have the edge but perhaps by more so in poor light.

Just had notice from Amazon that my D500 is on its way to me.

I have reported the error message "This card may be damaged" to Nikon NPS in UK. They are not worried as I told them both cards are now working fine and no more error messages. I have promised to keep them informed if it comes up again. Now off for the day to use the camera and my 500mm lens!

Well I certainly hope it was just some stray stuff on the XQD cards. Still need to get a XQD for the D500 but I have a couple of fast Sandisk Extreme 32GB SD cards 90MB/s to use in the mean time. I cant decide what size XQD card to get. 128/64/32GB. Looking forward to getting my D500 to test. I was getting worried it was not going to arrive before my trip to Lithuania. Now I need to work out what lenses to take.

I was going to but my friend would then need to drive his car by himself and me drive the camper alone. Seems stupid to do that, so we are going in his car and I will fly back to Spain or UK.

Memory cards at risk warning notices still there on this afternoons shoot but pix all OK. Phoned NPS Nikon again and they do not know why but would like me to return camera to them. I said I will make contact again in two days as I want to do more tests first. Results with camera are first rate and all other systems work perhaps just a software glitch on my camera? Error message comes up two or three times every hour on whatever card is in use including high speed top grade SD Cards in 2nd slot. I am using only approved cards as named in the D500 instruction book.

Graham, Have you tried an SD in the camera? It may be that there are some new firmware in the XQD cards that is causing issues.

Yes the SD Card also brings up the same error warning.
