KenPapai Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 Resource to read about this camera, release FEB. 2004: (basic math answer really for an 8.2MP sensor) <p> <a href="http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/specs/Canon/canon_eos1dmkii.asp"> 1DMkII Review</a> at dpreview.com. A "typical" RAW file size is 8MB. Divide 2048 by 8 for your answer: 256 typical RAW images on a 2GB CF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenPapai Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 RTFM: Page 45 of the 1D Mark II manual says a typical filesize for RAW is 8.3MB. Of course if you shoot RAW+JPG you'll get far fewer than 250 RAW images on a 2GB card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark_chappell Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 I have a 1D II and a couple of 2 gig cards, which show space for 183 RAW images (ISO 400) when empty and freshly formatted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anna yu Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 In real life I get about 189 RAW files one a SanDisk Extreme 2 GB (no jpg). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david cunningham Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 i can get 90 raw files on a 1 gig so on a 2 gig must be around 180 or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewmoore Posted May 18, 2005 Author Share Posted May 18, 2005 Thanks guys and girls , the real life equation is more interesting to see. i guess you get many different answers, depending on what ISO you used. but the factor is 256, this is what i primarily need to know.

KenPapai Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 Andrew - DOWNLOAD the manual from Canon's site and get a leg up when your new body arrives. It's just a 5MB download into a beautiful PDF manual.<p> http://consumer.usa.canon.com/ir/controller?act=DownloadIndexAct&fcategoryid=301 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rokkor fan Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 The camera indicates 188 RAW at 250 ISO for a 2GB card, but in actual shooting conditions (weddings) it's more like 250 shots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
primoz Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 I never shoot only raw but always raw+jpeg (large) and it depends on iso but usually on my 1dmk2 and 1gb card I cant get somewhere between 70-80 photos. So I guess on 2gb it would be 140-160. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suzie_bauman Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 This has all been very helpful. However, I'm confused on the one who mentioned ISO. Would it be less pictures with lower ISO or higher ISO? I'm new to all of this and am really trying to get a photography business going in the future. I need all information from any avenue I can get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
