So I've done some fooling around with my K10D. I shot PEF's until the buffer was full. It took about 8 in a row until the buffer needed to slow things down. They were 12 to 13.5 meg each.
I shot DGN's until the buffer was full. It took about 11 in a row until the buffer slowed things down. They were 16 megs each. I shot JPG's and I could never fill the buffer up - 25+ and no slowdown. They were about 3 to 3.2 megs each. So here's the puzzle. I understand that the buffer and I/O system can write JPG's of 3 megs as fast as I can take them. No worrys until the memory card is full. I understand that the buffer and I/O system is full and slows down while trying to write 8 PEF's of 12-13.5 meg each. That's 96-108 meg and things get clogged up. I don't understand what's happening with the DGN's. They are 16 megs each and I can write 11 or 176 megs before the buffer-I/O system starts to bog down. Does this mean the K10D is doing something different with the DGN's? How? Regards, Bob S. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
