[QUOTE="CharlesUK, post: 441087, member: 38345"] I am finding the D810 is exceptionally picky on the CF cards it will use. I've had a number of 32GB ones rejected with the error “This memory car can not be used. Card may be damaged. Insert another.” . This has included cards on Nikon's recommended list. What experience are other having with the D810 and CF cards? The D800's, D700's, D300's etc don't have this problem. All of those cards work fine in other cameras or on various computers. Doing memory card tests on the computer they are indicated as OK. I think this is a Nikon problem, not a card problem. Older smaller CF cards work fine, one 32GB Lexar works fine another didn't, so its not just that Nikon is supporting newer standards. Basically the camera software isn't up to scratch. Out in the field when using a camera not being able to buy, borrow just about any CF card is going to be a real problem. Compatibility with a wide range is incredibly important. [/QUOTE]
