Hi,
Sometimes when I take photos, after a couple of shots, I have to wait a while before I can take more, especially after it wakes from power-saving mode. I know that's probably because of the camera buffer, but I'm wondering if my CF card is slow too. When I bought my DSLR, it came with two Kingston Elite Pro 133x 8gb CF cards. I did a Google search on them and it was supposedly giving 20mb/s transfer speed.

Isn't that relatively fast? I mean since a RAW file is roughly 10mb at 10mpx. So why is it that I have to wait like almost 2s? Is it the CF card or the camera?
Are the Sandisk ones any faster? Looking from HWZ's pricelist, it states they have a min 9mb write speed. What are the CF cards you guys are using?
I'm using a Sony A200.
Thanks!
