Sample Timings |
Top Previous Next |
The tables below show approximate timings for the minimum interval between photographs when triggering the shutter from the PC. The timings approximate and are for guidance only.
When taking photos using the camera's shutter release the camera can take photos at its normal frame rate (e.g. 5 frames/sec for the 30D and 3 frames/sec for the 400D/Rebel XTi and 450D/Rebel XSi) until its buffers become full. After an initial camera processing delay the images will be transferred to the PC at approximately 3 to 5 Mb/sec. The camera is able to continue taking photos at a reduced frame rate until its secondary buffers become full and then has to wait for images to be downloaded before taking more photos. |
