[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 350087, member: 9240"] OK, folks, I've not experienced this before, and I can't seem to find if this is normal. I've replicated this for both the D600 and D610, but haven't checked it for other cameras yet. Camera is set up to shoot RAW images only, not RAW plus JPEG. Slot 1 has a 92Mbs Sandisk Extreme Pro card, Slot 2 has an EyeFi X2. Scenario 1 - Slot 1 is set for RAW, Slot 2 is set for JPEG, shooting [B][I]only RAW[/I][/B]. Camera fires ~16 images before slowing down and takes at ~20 seconds for the buffer to clear. Scenario 2 - Slot 1 is set for RAW, Slot 2 is set for Overflow, shooting [B][I]only RAW[/I][/B]. Camera fires ~22 images before slowing down and takes ~4 seconds for the buffer to clear (green light to go off). [I]Is this normal?![/I] I don't ever remember running into this. Nothing is being written to Slot 2, so why is the clear rate taking so long? Does the camera do the JPEG processing anyway, even if it's not going to write it? It seems ridiculous. I'm not complaining as much as I am trying to understand what's going on. I looked for something on the web about this but came up empty. [/QUOTE]
