I agree, actually - it would be very usefull. Wouldn't it be possible to add
a larger buffer to an existing camera??
Like a "power grip" or booster!

Emne: Re: new AF system soon (when D2 arrives)?


Pentax shouldn't aspire to having better performance than Canon?  I
personally would like to see 2-3 fps for 20-30 exposures.   Rather than
a 4-8 fps burst rate, just match the performance that I could get with a
winder on my LX, that would be fine.
