Hi Don and any others following this thread, All my cards are Sandisk Extreme III's, sizes vary from 2 -16 Gb. I use 2x 16 Gb in the D3, a 12 Gb in the D700, and an 8Gb in the D100 IR. Card Download seems to depend upon Camera Model and card size - I Download twice - Once with NX2 - this provides my backup store to an External Firewire Drive. Then I download everything into Aperture for sorting etc. D3 and D700 download in both applications in seconds. D100 is slower in both but now it's not by much - Aperture is slower than NX2 on all cameras.
Now a bit about WB. D100 is set to custom white balance - taken from grass. I have posted two Pics in the Gallery called "What am I ...?"

And "What am I Original"

The Original has only been resized. In my opinion it looks very much like the scene in colour - It shows there is not a lot of IR about under the pier to affect the IR sensor of the camera. The next job will be to try different WB's on shots. Green for custom on landscape, perhaps a different custom WB for other types of shots. Perhaps Blue or sand colours for beach and seascapes?
