10photos no blitz in jpeg:

Notice how the D80 sucks

10 photos no blitz RAW:

Notice how both D80 and 400D sucks

I have cameras that can capture 40 shots and FPS to 9, but i hardly every use those features. Same as having 100 AF points. I only use one.

I think anything over 3 fps for 99% of camera owners is never used. Yes, no.??

I think I have more use for multi-serie photos than most users yes.

I'm a little confused- what are those graphs saying? Is that how many seconds it takes to take ten pictures? If so then the K10 sucks it up along with the d200 (huh?). Is it measuring bandwidth, how many pictures it can take before slowing down, what?

Its how many pictures taken in 10sec- so the first one has K10D at 30, D80 at an embarressing 18
