Alik Griffin tested almost all available CFexpress Type B memory cards on the Nikon Z9 camera and came up with this list of recommended/best memory cards with the in-camera speeds as well as if they worked for 8k NRAW:
| Recommended Cards | In-Camera Speeds | USB 3.2 Write | 8k 60 NRAW |
| Lexar Diamond 256GB | 728 MB/s | 983 MB/s | yes |
| Nikon 660GB | 725 MB/s | 961 MB/s | yes |
| Lexar Professional 128GB | 620 MB/s | 923 MB/s | yes |
| Delkin Black 150GB | 723 MB/s | 966 MB/s | yes |
| Prograde Cobalt 325GB | 722 MB/s | 973 MB/s | yes |
| AngelBird Pro XT MKII 330GB | 728 MB/s | 970 MB/s | yes |
| Wise Advanced Pro 128GB | 670 MB/s | 941 MB/s | yes |
| Best Value For Video | |||
| AngelBird Pro 1TB MKII | 697 MB/s | 889 MB/s | yes |
| AngelBird SE 512GB | 668 MB/s | 794 MB/s | yes |
The conclusion:
- For hybrid shooters that need fast cards for both stills and video, Nikon brand cards, Delkin, Angelbird, Lexar, and the Prograde Cobalt are going to be your best options. In general, the best cards for Nikon cameras right now are:
- Lexar Diamond
- Prograde Cobalt
- Delkin Black – the ones in the 150GB series, or Delkin Power
- Nikon 660 GB Card
- Angelbird AV Pro SX, or XT MKII
- Look for Sandisk and Sony to upgrade their cards with better-sustained minimum speeds in the future.
- For those buying the Nikon Z9 just for video, you can get a really good value with some of the Angelbird cards like the Pro 1TB MKII card and their SE card.
- For photographers that still use XQD cameras and readers, the Lexar Diamond card is a great option.
