I usually "burst" 6-7 in a row when doing reining. I was shooting at full resolution too and largest jpeg size as well. I suspect I could cut that back to the next level down and get more images befor the buffer fills. I will try it later and report back. I recall the shutter speeds were a bit slow, but I NEVER record this stuff. I can't be filling my mind with useless junk. All I cared about was that AF was fast enough, and the shutter lag was more like my LX than anything else I have used. It's a pretty responsive camera. When you push the button, it takes the picture. It doesn't piss around about it. This is a good thing, since responsiveness is what small cameras are all about. They have to offer something to get us away from the big guns. William Robb
