I have just purchased a Lexar Pro 32GB XQD 2.0 2933x card with Speed 440MB/s ready for my D500. These very fast cards now down a lot in price, this cost me with card reader just under £100.

Graham,
I was looking at getting one of these cards Lexar Pro 32GB XQD 2.0 2933x (440MB/s) card like you have but I have read that they dont work (or not very well) and you need to use the Lexar Pro 32GB XQD 2.0 1400x (210MB/s) which is a slower card. 
It might be worthwhile checking with Nikon NPS about this.


I am waiting to get my D500 in my hand before I get an XQD card,  I have purchased 2x32GB Sandisk Extreme (90MB/s) SD cards.  However undoubtedly XQD is the card to get if you want to do video and also fast sports action.
