[T] Hmm, Nikon .. costs more than £175 methinks?

[T] Could be? My 2/4/16M cards have exactly the same 'cycle time' of 8 seconds whilst 
the 64/128M's are 20s. I first noticed it when I bought my 64M and felt it was taking 
longer. I thought it could of been memory speed or the fact that the Fuji DX10 was a 
fairly old camera with a slow processor and found 'managing' that much memory a bit 
more difficult (like the fact that you might be able to play .mp3's on a 70 with no 
problems but might struggle on a 50)?

[T] I tried the 'buffer test' and the camera simply won't attempt to take another 
picture till it's ready ... ?
