2wk Posted March 27, 2014 Share #1 Posted March 27, 2014 Advertisement (gone after registration) I have read a few different times where M9s, or MMs have different buffering times even with same settings and the same SD card. I'm just curious. With a 8gb Lexar card, a single shot sets my red light blinking for 6.4 seconds give or take some error in my hitting a stop watch button at the exact same time. A 3 shot burst takes 13 seconds to stop blinking. I did the same test with a blue Transcend 16gb card. Single shot: 4.5 seconds. 3 shot burst: 11 seconds. If anyone is interested, please post your results. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrian Lord Posted March 31, 2014 Share #2 Posted March 31, 2014 I don't know about blinking times, the only thing that matters to me is when it eventually get to the point when it won't fire when I call it to. It varies, but I'm not too troubled by it. I use a 32GB Sandisc extreme. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpk Posted April 1, 2014 Share #3 Posted April 1, 2014 Also High-ISO is much slower... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pico Posted April 2, 2014 Share #5 Posted April 2, 2014 Wouldn't it be a good idea to first standardize upon the settings? Then shoot without the SD Card to establish the base, then again with the SD Card to find the difference. (It will shoot without the card until the internal memory is full.)
