Just how many cameras can support UHS-II as of today?

D500 does but also has xqd that's 300mb/s anyway.

First gonna need a decent range of devices that support anything like that speed :s even today (not talking specifically cameras) there are still devices with the sd card interface limited to 19MB/s

I've noticed that my cheapo sd card reader only gives around that speed when plugged into my usb 3 port, maybe that's why?

Also announced UHS III standard that has theoretical top speed of 624mb/s

Its a shame that actual cameras seem to be way behind cutting edge.

Lots. Most new cameras this year released can.
