That’s a very interesting and useful test, Gert.mThanks for posting it.

Seeing the last image with the large numbers of exposures, it made me remember how good digital photography is compared to film. So many shots for ‘free’.

Yes, imagine a film SLR being able to do 30 fps, you would shoot for one 1 second and then have to insert a new film roll :lol:
That said,  I had to buy a new CFexpress card to match the writespeed of the Z8. Benefit is you can shoot jpg at 30 fps without hitting the buffer limit,  that is, you can keep shooting as long you can hold the camera.
If you prefer raw then it can keep going up to 12 fps - if you start with 20 fps then it shoot a few seconds at 20 fps and when the buffer if full it continues at 12 fps.
