I bought this by mistake, so the box is open, but the card is new. I thought my recently-purchased D850 would take a CF card in the "B" slot, but I found (duh?) that it takes a QXD, so I need to sell the 64GB CF card. I bought it for $41.95 but will sell for $30.00 plus shipping ($5-6.00?) because I have no use for it - you benefit from my mistake!

Before you sell this, your D850 WILL take a CFe card, as long as it is a type B, and you have updated the firmware (free @ Nikonusa). If it is a CF card, or a CFe Type A card, no dice! PM me if you need further explanation. Best of luck.

Wow! Thanks - I will check this out - the size seems far off, but maybe I was making another mistake!
Thanks again - I'll let you know

Can you post a picture of the card you have and also tell us your camera's firmware version? Did you buy a NEW camera? I owned a D850 and CFe cards worked fine. Best of luck.
cjc2 - thanks for trying to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat, but defeat won! It's an older (but new) CF card, not CFe, so even the size is wrong - it won't even begin to fit into the slot on the camera for the memory card. I should have hesitated when I saw that the second slot on the D850 appeared to take a CF card, as this is what I used to use on the D300s many years ago... Live and learn, as they say, and hopefully someone can use a new CF card. Thanks for your thoughts!
