The old Mk. II is only rated at 8.3 fps. Also, if you're under 1/250 second, the camera can't fire at 8 fps, period. Maybe the mirror blackout slowed it down? I can try doing the math, but I'd like to know how well the conditions were controlled. Were they both using the same kind of card? I've cleared a D70 buffer faster than "faster" cameras because of my faster cards.
