  Well, you can just calculate the maximum number of bytes per image to see what the actual capacity is. 128M pixels * 3 bytes per pixel is 384 Megabytes. Should go down to 100 each after JPEG compression.

    If you’re spending this much on a camera and only shooting JPEG, what are you doing lol

        Ahhh I forgot about Fuji’s film simulations. But I still can’t imagine you spend more than $5k on a camera and use jpegs.

        Most “lossless” compressions (e.g. PNG) wouldn’t work here, because they throw away a lot of extra data you get raw from the camera sensor. Hence photographers using their camera’s “raw” file time to retain as much data as possible. A PNG may capture everything you as a consumer sees in an image, but raw file types will retain extra information you can use when editing a photo.

    Increase by 25-50% if you want HDR color specs.
