XQD cards are great to have as part of the Nikon D4 system. The 168MB/s write speed is 68% faster than 1000x compact flash memory, allowing bursts of 100 continuous RAW frames at the maximum frame rate. I also appreciate this format's elimination of pins in the card slot, which is a strong plus for anyone who has ever dealt with a bent CF slot pin.

Excellent Card! Works great in the D4! Pricey, but if you dropped $6k on a D4, whats another couple bills!
