How many RAW files will the X-T100 shoot in a burst before it pauses to clear the buffer?

Thanks,

Sal

Sal, I will test this again tomorrow I think I originally reported 18 raw only, but it was with a uhs1 card, a lot of the images were using my uhs ii and I think it was less, Inwas also shooting raw + fine jpg. I tend to just shoot short bursts, ie with zone acquire af go, no hesitation. The pd-af points do pick up quickly and the evf is surprisingly fluid, pity uhs ii isn’t supported. I’m hoping to do more action shooting with it on Saturday

Thanks. I'm mostly just curious how many RAWS can shot in a burst on a stationary subject with a fixed focus point, like a low light urban landscape. I like to stack multiple images for super resolution and/or for noise reduction (averaging) at high ISOs.

Sal

For super resolution don't the images need to be offset by "x" pixels?

Hand holding takes care of that.

What software are you using for sr? For the averaging presumably ps/cc?

I batch convert in Iridient Developer at usually 150% size.  Stack the images in PS with align images turned on.  Then I manually average the layers.

I was able to make a few hand-held bracket shots, 3, recently, there was some ghosting so obviously hand movement on a few brackets, this is 3 shots, 0.5 sec(hand-held lol), 1/12 and 1/100 iso 3200. Would need to check the bracket spacing for the above, the 0.5 sec looks a little blurred but lr photo merge has done a good job except in the bottom right.

You have to worry about the nodal point, which is usually only an issue for subjects close to the camera.  You can play around with mean and average methods in PS based on subject matter.  I love my GR II but it's a bit noisy at ISO 1600.  I take 6-10 RAW images in a burst (The GR II will hold 10 RAW frames in the buffer before it pauses to clear.)  After averaging the layers the noise is diminished and very "organic" in nature.

Sal

If I merge just the mid exposure and darkest, the ghosting is gone all together and the dr is pretty good, below is almost exactly, light, color etc as I remember it
