Re: DP2x speed: perception and reality

I found that there is no difference between the class 4 and class 10 cards. Even without the equipment, there are posts from DP veterans that a class 4 would do to max the write performance.

I think the DP are limited to around class 4 card or 4-5MB/s write performance. I just bought a class10 card for the DP2, and yet, it's still the same.

The speed is enough except in certain times I would use the 3fps drive mode and I would need to re-shoot.

With the DPMs, I expect it to saturate the class10 speed specification of the SD cards which is 10MB/s. If I used that with the low resolution mode of the DPM with around 3.7 megapixels, we could get write times of just above of 1 second per shot.

Were on hearth you found that the DP are limited to Class 4 cards lol ??

This forum is hilarious when ppl who don't own SIGMA sistem start to speak.
