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

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
