Found the XQD info interesting.

Looks like I'll have to shell out about $300CDN for a card.

Now I'll have to find a new spot to store my chewing gum. :lol:

If I can get away from Cornwall then I would be up for the trip but October may be a bit early. The Z7 wont arrive until end of September and the Z6 will be sometime in November.

I think that Spring time may be a better option for me.

Back on Topic.

The UHS-II bus on SD cards goes up to 312 MB/s transfer speed maximum, which is not as fast as the new G series XQD cards. XQD can theoretically handle 1000 MB/s, which gives it a lot of room for growth. That's down to XQD using a different bus (PCI Express), which makes it physically incompatible.

I think at this point we can close this discussion of an adapter for SD cards in an XQD slot as being not feasible!

I will lock this thread at this point.
