@Xyb3rTeCh So the camera that is not out yet and due March 2012, will be better than the camera that came out Oct 2009...  That's a shocker. I need to take a few moments to take this in.

@sheldonalleyne Camera test, not example of everyday use ;-)

@funincluded Yes the memory card you use is as critical as the lens you put on the front. Granted, there is more expense, but the speed of any camera can not be realized until it it let free. I used the sandisk range because of speed, build quality and shielding. (X-ray, water etc). Imagine buying the worlds fasted computer, then making it load the operating system via a 3.5 floppy!

Interesting. I am not familiar with how the buffering technology works, so excuse the ignorance: on my T3i, would I be able to bipass the buffer with a 95mb/s card?

As of now, I get 6 shots RAW with a cheaper Transcend card (which I assume is getting around 18mb/s)

@apisthetic Got to play with the D4 yesterday and it is bloody fast, but a bit of a mute point as it will mainly be shot one at a time!

@kebakue winning!

[cachurchill76]

@funincluded about 3 frames per second down for first 3/4 cycles, then drops a frame each cycle ending about 100 ish for almost 18 seconds. Extreme pro 90 only, the 60MB bugs out after about 14 shots as shown when you half press the shutter. This is because the UDMA 6 on the pro by passes most of the buffer operations.

@cachurchill76 One can say the first comment was also a waste of keyboard :)

[funincluded]

How about RAW?

[cachurchill76]

@MrYellaboyy Way to miss the point of a test, It's a good job the people that crash tested your car didn't think the same... or was it?

fucking lol at the guy with the 1Dx comment

Total waste of shutter counts make no sense to just sit there and hold the shutter what a tool!
