Same marketing ploy as the d800 v d800e

The is supposed to be sharper but e risk of moire is an issue depending on what you shoot...

I know it's waterproof but a sigma 300mm 2.8 with telecom enter is still less than half price, yes I know it has SDM but that is one expensive piece of glass....

I have tried so many cards over the last year, reading speed is a crucial part of my workflow. I spend more time waiting for images to transfer from card to laptop than I do on editing, so have done much testing over the last year.

The san disk extreme pro cards are the fastest I have used and for the price are excellent.

I have yet to find a card that writes faster than 20 mb/s that files more than 23 shots on the k-5 before the buffer fills and fps slows down, so this must be the maximum speed the k-5 writes at, iirc the gx20 wrote 22 shots before the buffer filled but that shoots at 3 fps.
