[QUOTE="Fortkentdad, post: 626784, member: 24285"] Update to my XQD purchase post Tried it out - works fine. Really didn't notice the difference between a good SD card and this super fast card - but I didn't measure it. Only openned 484 RAW shots so maybe not a fair test and no stopwatch was used. But it works fine, and fast. Now I have yet another gizmo plugged into my PC. [ATTACH=CONFIG]259181._xfImport[/ATTACH] You can see the size of this new card, thicker and larger than an SD - and maybe more durable? I hope so, at $115 with tax and shipping for the card and reader it is a bit more costly than an SD by double the price if not more by capacity - SD's don't compare with speed. The reader is also twice the size of my SD card reader (that blue and black one reads SD and Micro-SD - it's a Kingston model). Both plugged to USB-3 ports. Oh the memories - or rather memory devices. [/QUOTE]
