Hi Joe ...to check the file size for a certain ppi, check out www.shortcourses.com there's a spreadsheet you can fill in. I doubt that a 6MP file (1800x1200) can be that large. If I'm wrong, please tell me why! Jens
-----Oprindelig meddelelse----- Fra: Joseph Tainter [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sendt: 5. juli 2003 19:43 Til: pdml Emne: Digital Delays? I've just read an article in Shutterbug about raw files, and how much a digicam has to do to convert a raw file to TIFF or JPG. When I eventually buy a digital SLR I will probably do 99% of my shooting at the highest possible resolution that the camera offers, with files converted to TIFF. That may make for 30 to 50 mb files. My current computer (Athlon 1.33 ghz, 512 mb ram) might take a second or so to compute all of the conversions that a digicam does when it converts raw files to TIFF. I cannot imagine that a camera like the starkistdee will have greater processing power than my desktop PC. That being so, can such cameras really achieve several frames per second while producing high resolution TIFF files? Rather than frames per second, it seems to me that the equation might be seconds per frame. Maybe someone who has tried a digital SLR (Cotty?) can let us know. Thanks, Joe
