I was looking at the appropriate thread for this 'discovery', related to continuous shooting. This thread is the other one that looks appropriate, so I wanted to share/crosspost this here too. This is with the v1.01 bios...
Last night I was playing around inside with only a few hundred watts of lights on with the continuous HI and Low to see how many shots I could get, AT was on continuous as well. I thought I changed a setting that had a side-effect of slowing down continuous shooting. I didn't have any lens correction enabled. Continuous was still set on "Hi" mode.
I soon realized when I pointed at the while wall/corner where a spotlight was pointing, the camera was shooting at max. Point at the TV, speed was max. Point at a light, speed was max. Point at dimly lit areas, and speed dramatically decreased to from 3 - 1 shot a sec. So I realized EV level had a huge impact on the continuous rate.
I was doing a lot of continuous shooting of the dogs playing with a ball today, outside, and continuous shots were definitely at max speed. ...found it interesting in the sense of knowing your gear.
