5DIII buffer depth
« on: March 04, 2012, 11:16:43 PM »
I've been looking for information about the reduced size RAW files for the 5DIII, plus the buffer depth for RAW.
Can anyone fill the gaps here?

5DIII RAW:    buffer: 13 shots,  22.10 Megapixels,  pixel dimensions (5760 x 3840)
5DIII mRAW: buffer:  xx shots,    xx Megapixels and pixel dimensions (     x     )
5DIII sRAW:  buffer:  xx shots,    xx Megapixels and pixel dimensions (     x     )

When shooting some sports with the 1D4 I sometimes find it useful to switch to mRAW to push the buffer out from 26 to 33.
I'm expecting a huge leap with the 1D4 buffer with its' dual digic processors.

Did you notice that with a CF UDMA 7 card the RAW burst goes from 13 to 18?

The JPEG difference is insane! From 65 to 16,270!  I think the shutter would melt... ;D
