Digital
Camera: Buffer And Processing
The digital camera buffer
is internal and stores the image until the camera downloads it to
the memory card. Processing determines the speed
at which this action take place. This is where the expression "frames
per second" (fps) comes into play.
Have you been taking
lots of shots rapidly in a row before and suddenly your camera stops?
With small digital cameras 6-10 photos can be taken in rapid succession.
Then the camera needs time to transfer the images from the buffer
to the memory card before you can continue.
Many advance SLR
digital cameras have larger, faster buffers. Depending on your
photography goals, you may wish to invest in one of these digital
cameras.
