That usually works but sometimes the unexpected happens.

Higher resolution is fine, but I'm baffled by the need for a faster buffer. I spot the potential picture, get ready, and take it. If it's a moving or changing subject I wait for the right moment, near as I can guess, and press the button. I guess having learned my photography on a twin-lens reflex with twelve shots per roll, where you had to wind on with several turns of a knob, and cock the shutter by hand[1] explains this. I've never used a camera with any kind of power wind or motor drive; I just don't feel any need to shoot in bursts. [1] Microcord II, post-war British copy of a pre-war Rolleicord.
