<p>I want to maximize my image quality while maintaining the largest possible amount of shots available on my<br>

CF-card. I am using a d-300. My settings are as follows.</p>

<p>1. Raw uncompressed 16-bit.<br>

2. CF card is primary ( 8 gigs)<br>

3. SD card is secondary (2 gigs</p>

<p>The problem I have is that under the above conditions only 76 shots are available on the primary CF card. If<br>

I switch cards and make the SD card the primary, I still wind up with 76 shots. Shouldn't the CF card show<br>

somewhere around 300 shots? As always thanks in advance.</p>

<p>Shun,</p>

<p>Thanks so mucch! I'm not the brightest kid on the block and do appreciate your responses, they<br>

really help. Joe</p>

<p>I will be shooting a bike race and want to create a blur effect utilizing rear curtain sync. I will be using a<br>

d-300s and an SB-9oo mounted on the camera. These will be daylight shots using a wide angle lens at a<br>

distance of no greater than 10 feet. I am totally confused as to how to set this up in my camera and or flash.<br>

Thanks in advance for any tips!</p>

<p>Thanks to all! I will be shooting in raw only and after reading the responses will no use the<br>

d-lighting feature. </p>

<p>I just purchased a d-300s (couldn't find a d300} and am confused over Active D-lighting.<br>

I have 2 questions.<br>

A. what exactly is d-lighting?<br>

B. Is d-lighting unique or can I duplicate the effect in either Photoshop or Lightroom effectively?</p>

<p>Thanks for all your help. </p>

<p> What is the difference between a 12 bit lossless compressed file and a 12 bit uncompressed file in relation<br>

to image quality? I just purchased a D300s and want to shoot in continuous mode for a bike race. I wanted<br>

to shoot using a 14 bit but understand it drops my frame rate to around 2fps. Looking for the next best<br>

alternative set-up for this type of situation. Thanks in advance. </p>
