I would prefere a 5-8 FPS DSLR camera, featuring correspondingly
fast AF.
Most photographers would agree with me, I'm sure.
I find it virtually irrelevant to my photography. Probably 99.9% of
the time I have my camera set to single shot mode, and I use manual
focus quite a bit.
The Sony R1 I bought only has a two-frame buffer when capturing RAW,
and takes 9 seconds to write a RAW file and free the buffer for a
third shot after the buffer is full. I haven't found it to be any
detraction at all, nor the supposedly "slow" AF in low light.
Important to some is not important to all.
