Can D70s reaches 3fps?

NeoInc · 14th July 2006

My setup was D70s + AFD 80-200mm f2.8. I was taking actions photos on a sunny day. The shutter sounded abit slow on my D70s. My friend used a 350D + 80-200mm f4. His shutter sounded much faster. We did a timing test. For 30 shots continous, 350D clocked 10 secs while D70s clocked 18 secs.

Anyone can enlighten me how could this happen?

some time might be needed to refocus if setup is accidentally shifted during the test

Would glad if someone can enlighten. Is it due to set up or setting?

benleez · 15th July 2006

yanyewkay · 15th July 2006

what's the shutter speed you're using and was the noise reduction feature turned on or off?

Ensure your shutter speed and CF card, NR, AE/AF-L are all set properly.

disable long exposure noise reduction (its in one of the menus)....

AFAIK noise reduction is only work when camera's speed is and more than 1 second.
For 3fps thing, noise reduction will not working.

Does it have an effect (slowing thing) even if not working?

burst speed slower if NR on (when shooting jpeg)....happen to me before, thot something wrong wth my cam. was told disable NR and the burst speed's turn out to be faster (3fps that is)...can tell the difference by listening to the shutter sound when doing burst shots.
