Find how long a camera's buffer can sustain continuous shooting.
The burst duration is the buffer's raw-frame capacity divided by the continuous frame rate the camera can sustain. Sports and wildlife shooters need the burst to outlast the key moment, so buffer size governs how long you can hold the shutter.
Burst Buffer Duration
Burst duration = buffer capacity / fps
Burst duration = buffer capacity / fps The burst duration is the buffer's raw-frame capacity divided by the continuous frame rate the camera can sustain.
Sports and wildlife shooters need the burst to outlast the key moment, so buffer size governs how long you can hold the shutter.
This calculator takes 2 inputs: Continuous frame rate, Buffer capacity (raw). The pre-filled defaults are a realistic starting point — replace them with figures from your own environment for a result you can act on.
