I just aquired the G7X and really like it so far. However when shooting exposure bracketing with RAW+jpeg it takes quite a while between the 3 shots. A little under one second I think. I'm using Class 10 and a Class 6 SD cards but there is no difference in shot to shot time between the two. Can I speed this up with another faster card and which one shoud I get?

Thanks

Provided the Class 10 is actually running at its rated speed, you're not going to gain anything by using a faster card. Shot-to-shot times are slow with RAW.

I'd still invest in a fast card. The larger the card, the more of a pain it is to transfer off the card at slower speeds. Some will argue that they have patience, but to me waiting for stuff to transfer is boring!

My suggestion, but don't have the camera, is stop recording jpg too. Rewlly overmillion especially along with exposure bracketing. That's like complaining that you can't stop your car easily and it's because you keep your foot on the gas when hitting the brake!
