Er, uh, I hate to tell you this, but the E-1 has outsized RAW files.
Other cameras with bigger sensors have smaller RAW files. Even the full
frame, 12.8 mp 5D has RAW files only about 12-13% bigger than the E-1.
Camera Sensor RAW file RAW/ Sensor
20D 8.0 7.5 94%
5D 12.8 11.7 91%
300D 6.3 6.6 105%
D70 6.1 5.4 89%
D200 10.2 16.1 158%
E-1 5.1 10.4 204%
E-500 8.0 13.8 173%
In any given space, you can store about 39% more RAW files from an 8 mp
20D or about 92 % more 6.1 mp D70 files than RAW files from the 5.1 mp
E-1. The E-50 is somewat more efficient, but still outsized.
