[QUOTE="Fortkentdad, post: 641766, member: 24285"] Caller: How many slices in your large pizza? Pizza Shop: How small do you want them? But to give an idea I looked at RAW files from my D500 and D610 and see they range from a low of about 20,000k to 40,000k 400 RAW's took up close to 10GB on my hard drive so you'd get upwards of 1,200 on a 32GB card Checked my current 32GB card in my D610 - 188 pictures takes up 5.5 GB. I've gone with 32GB cards for the D610 and D7100, faster ones in the primary slot, slower older one in the secondary slot. I've tried the RAWs to one and JPG to the other, now just shoot RAWs to the primary and leave the second slot as backup. For me the saving grace of the second slot is when I take the card out to pop into my card reader - then leave it there. Grab camera and glory be there is still a card in it. When I was using my D5100 with only one slot we did have one time when we went out for the day but sadly I was without a card in the camera - lesson learned. Also have some old 8GB cards tucked into corners of my camera bag - just in case. [/QUOTE]
