Re: G1X shot-to-shot speed question

I just have a cheap class 10 card in mine, no idea how quick it is supposed to be.  Anyhow, out of curiosity, I did a pretend test of what you are saying (RAW, manual exposure and focus) and blasted nine photos in quick succession.  It did indeed take 30 seconds, which is about as quick as I could compose!  That's the first time I've ever noticed any delay with my G1X.  It tends to be pretty snappy.  The delay came from the screen going blank for around a second or so per shot, making it hard to recompose quickly.  Of course, you could use the viewfinder, might save you nine seconds.

Personally, a nine shot panorama would take me minutes.  I'd want to be sure of my composition.
