D300 battery grip + 14bit fps rate

Postby chrisk on Fri Apr 18, 2008 11:01 am

when you add the battery grip i know the fps increases for 12 bit RAW. can someone pls confirm, does it also lift the 14bit fps rate from the pedestrian 2.5fps to something decent ?

It doesn't. If you want to get 14-bit at a faster frame rate, you need a D3 :wink:

thanks. that does seem pretty ridiculous imo. not that i have seen any differences in 14bit anyway but still...
dviv, no point cutting your nose off to spite you face. your suggestion is like taking 1 step forward and 5 steps back. :lol: :up:
