Anyone else noticed?
I tried googling but the only promising link was for the nikonians forum, that required me to register. No thanks. CS search function turned up much irrelevance for me, so please pardon me if this is a repeat qn.
The story is that the shutter sounds the same on 14 bit NEF across a wide range of shutter speeds. anything from abt 1/30 and faster sounds like it is at 1/30. even at 1/8000, the shutter sounds like it's very slow
switch to JPEG only, and the shutter sounds back to normal. it sounds faster at higher shutter speeds, and slower at slower speeds.
then i realised tt I had switched to 14 bit NEF. switched back to 12 bit, and the shutter sounds back to normal again.
I did a comparison between 14 bit NEF and jpg. same shutter speeds (fixed aperture/ISO) give the same exposure. so somehow, the shutter is working the same, but sounds different. It could be the mirror slap which actually produces a different noise
it was quite disturbing though. i thought my shutter up lorry liao :embrass:
anyone has an explanation?
