[QUOTE="spb_stan, post: 679466, member: 43545"] Why is it a problem with 1 slot? The XQD is much more reliable, and the only digital storage media designed as a pro grade device. The Mean Time Between Failure rating is much longer than the flimsy consumer grade SD. Another advantage of XQD is that it is faster, so much so that the small buffer clears in about 1 second. That means bursts of 35 raw shots and lifting off the shutter release for one second gives you an empty buffer again. A third advantage of using a pro-grade system is the speed of download. The real-time transmission at 1gigabit per second is possible using the optional WT-7 dual-band RF link that can transfer files as they are taken at that speed to any number of storage devices such as laptops or network drives at the same time .over a radius of 660 ft! A wedding photographer could have JPG image images downloading to an editing computer as they are taken, and display a slideshow without ever removing a card or connecting to a network cable. For pros, to had that ability or even the build in WiFi is almost real-time transfers of large jpgs over a shorter distance. Every studio, event, location pro would benefit from not having to depend on unreliable SD cards. Yes, a lot of people got emotionally overexcited over the "deal breaker" but they are not thinking very clearly or understand the Z7 and Z6 are actually more reliable by not depending on consumer grade cost cutting. The future of file handling is all RF, and only the new Nikon Z series has it now. Others have slow, short distance wi-fi connections that don't work that well. The biggest news and long-term benefit of the Z series the large new Z mount that will allow the sharper corner to corner smaller simpler faster lenses that are sharper wide open than what is available now that do not need VR. Every report has been raving about the image quality and how good the EVF is. This is going to be a successful series despite what the complainers on Youtube claim. The early rejection of products before even seeing one is a predictable first response of every camera released by Nikon. Ignore the naysayers, they don't know as much as they think they do. [/QUOTE]
