Today I learned these CFexpress cards are just M.2 NVME ssd's in a case . That means a lot more possibilities at a cheaper cost if you're brave.
Worth a try for the price ... now we wait on Amazon
Here is the voice of experience: the poor (or cheap, or foolishly brave) mans pays twice.
You will be unhappy if you buy the Zitay.
With the right card - not the one you linked, but the one Zitay recommends (Kioxia(Toshiba) 1TB BG4 ), you will get high-speed bursts and 8K video. But:
- the "release timing indicator" will not take a set (you'll get blackout when pressing the shutter, even you you set another type, at least after a while) and other odd things will happen.
- when the card gets even a slightly, I'm talking less than 10%, full, high speed bursts or high-bit-rate video will lock the camera, requiring a battery pull.
Use a real card, or not, your choice, but don't say you weren't told.
Any of the Nikon- or Hogan-recommended cards will serve you well, have a warrantee, and prevent forehead marks when you eventually palm-slap yourself repeatedly.
I would like Mr. Miranda to grant me a year's B&S privileges for the preceding PSA.
