Revelation! - Canon 50D Max Burst.

So my buddy Paul and I were trying to figure out why my 50D was not getting the max burst amount that Canon claimed it would get. The manual told me I would get 16 frames in Raw and 60 in large JPG fine. I was not. I was able to get 12 or 13 raw photos before the buffer would fill up and only 17 photos in JPG. We thought and thought and thought about this for a couple of days.

Here is what we discovered. You need to have the high ISO noise reduction turned right off! Even at a low ISO setting it still affected it. I turned it of and woo hoo! 17 consecutive photos in Raw and over 60 in JPG large fine.

I hope you sleep tonight Paul. Thanks for helping me out with that one.

Chris.
