D850 9 Frames per Second ?

If you would like to post, you'll need to register. Note that if you have a BCG store account, you'll need a new, separate account here (we keep the two sites separate for security purposes).

I have purchased the £1000 Battery Pack and QXD card only seem to be able to get 7 to the second ! What am I missing ?

Are you using the EN-EL 18 battery? Need the 2500 mAh battery to get the FPS (and AF speed) gain.

EDIT: To use the EN-EL18 battery you also need the Nikon BL-5 Battery Chamber Cover (shown below with the battery attached) and the Nikon MH-26 Battery Charger

This set up also gives the AF speed improvement when used with a D500 but no FPS increase.

Nothing wrong with that Graham.

My initial answer was the same allbeit not that elaborated like yours
Rereading the 1K pricetag led me to believe he has the correct (even OEM) hardware

Agreed. The battery is around 190GBP and OEM Charger 370GBP here.

Possibly not got "Use MB-D18 Batteries First" selected under the Battery Order option in Set Up menu?
