Lexar: “the product availability of XQD has been held up by multiple parties including Sony”



A quick update on my previous post about Lexar’s XQD memory cards – this is the official statement I received from Lexar:

“While Lexar is eager to pursue the XQD technology, the product availability of XQD has been held up by multiple parties including Sony (who owns the IP) which is preventing us from moving forward. In addition, we are diligently working on future standard of CFexpress through our efforts in the Compact Flash Association and partnerships with key camera manufacturers.”

The new Delkin XQD memory cards are still out of stock at AdoramaB&H and WEX (they should start shipping this week).
