If you are using second slot as overflow....when camera says 500 shots left as example is that for that card or does it include second card
As get first card gets filled at the full point will it say wet or full give some reason
Since it is overflow does it just go to the second card. And the quantity clock restarts based on the second card?
Thanks
Only active primary card.
I suspect it would reset the count on overflow but never tested that on my D800.
Yes, only the main card is displayed. Have the same camera with both slots populated.
Also I have found that the count is not accurate. I have a 32GB main card and a 16GB for overflow, and when empty, my counter says 500, and that is only on the main card. And seems to be a rough calculation, cause I had more than 500 pictures on that card on one session. It looks like it is estimating based on your picture quality settings, and doing an estimated calculation based on the highest file size possible of that pictures size setting. In order to fill up the card with just 500 pictures my files should be as big as 64MB each , and in my most cases they are between 23-30MB. As far as I know , our D750's do not produce 64MB Raw files.

Yes, they are estimates. The actual image size depends on the image content, especially with jpeg. They estimate worst case.
