As an experiment, I set my *ist-D on continuous shooting and use a
smaller JPEG size (L*) because I'm still using my old, slow 128MB cards
and just held down the shutter release button. The camera fired off 5

film) 5 frames in in one second (the time it takes
for a spin to happen) winding with your thumb?
This fps argument

sports. I agree that football and basketball do not require a motor drive
and the one case
Since all I've shot is field sports, I'll yield to those of you with more
