Anyone know if the D7200 supports the UHS-2 cards, and would they be beneficial. Sandisk claims 280MB's and 250MB's write and read speeds. I currently use a Sandisk Extreme Pro 95MB's card.

Thanks
George

P.S. The answer is no.

UHS-II(not 2) cards are backwards compatible with UHS-I. But you won't see any speed advantage, speed is limited by the camera and the D7200 is only UHS-I compatible. The Sandisk card you have is the fastest I've found in the SD form factor when it comes to write speed.

Save your $, buy a couple more of the SanDisk EX Pro 32GB cards from Amazon for $39.95/ea. and enjoy having a backup or two.

HTH,
Bill

You may want to check out Sony and Samsung cards, both 90 read or over. Got a samsung 64 xc from Amazon for 30 bucks. Modern codecs require xc cards (future proof for non Sony video).
