After I run the bootable.exe k: (k is my drive letter if it wasn't obvious), should I be able to see the effects of running this file on the SD card?

Sorry if this is the wrong topic/etc.

How long should I expect it to take writing an image to a decent SD card, at full resolution?

I am considering buying this camera because its the most promising one on newegg at the moment.  I plan on using it as a high speed document scanner.  I have an old ADF  (auto feed) scanner, but its way too slow.  I plan on scanning 1000+ documents as fast as possible.

My setup plan is:

1) Frame up a camera focused at the center of a table.
2) Do the remote shutter USB cable mod to a foot pedal (keep both hands free to work).
3) Diffuse bright lighting
4) Pile on the left side of the table.
5) Chalked (taped) outline of the ideal document location in the center of the table.
6) Done pile on the right.

With this setup I can have both hands working, taking a document off the top of the stack on the left, center it in the tape outline, hit the foot pedal, wait briefly, and stack it on the right.

This should be the optimal way to scan, but I see the bottle neck being how long it takes the camera to write to the SD card and be ready to release the shutter again.


Is this the right camera to use?  How often can I expect to take pictures? - If someone can actually time their throughput it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks a bunch

I took my camera (SD1100is) to a festival this past weekend.  I took about an hour of video (normal mode, not LP or time lapse), a couple hundred of photos and never had ANY lag on my 8gb class 4 card (PNY Optima).  I picked up the SDHC card from Staples a couple of weeks ago for $30.

Would anyone mind cranking the resolution up, the autofocus off, (any other optimizations you can think of for good quality pictures where the settings don't need to change), and seeing how fast you can take 10 or 20 pictures, back to back, with a stopwatch?  It really makes the difference that could make buying this camera kind of pointless or not.

If I end up doing this big scheme I'll do a writeup for you guys.

by the time you take the document off the table to put another one on the camera is going be ready to take another one, even if its saving raw files

I cannot access cardtricks from work (site is blocked by company firewall).  I was hoping someone might be willing to either send it to me or perhaps upload it to another location that I could access.

Thanks,
Frustrated

P.S.  I'm using a PC (Windows XP)
