Setting up Cards, Folders, and Files
Determining Write Speed You can determine the speed at which your camera writes data to the CF
card. Write speeds are measured in Megabytes per second (Mbytes/sec).
NOTE: Write speed improves if you turn the Image LCD off when
capturing images.
For the Most Accurate Write
Speed Measurement
1. If an SD or MMC card is inserted, set the card to Standby and remove
the card.
2. Insert a CF card.
3. Select RAW file type.
4. Set the RAW resolution to 13.5.
5. Select Single Image review mode.
6. Turn off the Image LCD.
7. Capture one or more images.
8. Turn on the Image LCD and choose Write Speed from the Capture
menu.
The write speed for the last saved image appears.
NOTE: Repeat steps 6 - 8 at least 3 times and average the results as
readings can vary slightly.
