Oh well that's good to know I normally shoot 1000 images before breakfast.
I start the coffee going first of course so its ready for when I get  back.
Just bring my camera along for my morning walk.


So and M9 is twice twice me.
Right now my files I'm shooting with my D200 are 15 MB's and my D40x 9.86
MB's!
And both have the same MP's! Go figure!?!?
I guess the compression with the D40x I guess is more seamless.

So I need to mind my MP's and MB's as I have no standard MP to MB
correlation.
