[QUOTE="gohan2091, post: 363753, member: 11990"] I've just now ordered a D810 DSLR and realised that it has a CF memory card slot. Coming from a D5100 and D7100, I am only use to SD cards. I am shocked by how expensive these CF cards are compared to SD. I am aware that the D810 also has an SD card slot. My questions are: 1) Why would Nikon not use 2 SD slots like in the D7100? 2) Can I use just the SD slot and leave the CF slot empty? or do I need to fill in both slots? 3) Is there any point in buying a 120MB/s or 160MB/s CF card if my SD card can only reach speeds of 80/90MB/s ? I understand the camera is only as fast as the slowest card. 4) Due to the massive sizes of the D810 NEF files, I would want a 64GB CF card. Which has the best price/performance?
