That makes sense! So if I'm already using a class 6 card I'm sol? Lol is it possible my camera is wearing out?
I just looked up your camera again. You should be getting 3.4 frames/second for a total of 170 .jpg or 9 RAWs before the buffer fills.
If you're shooting .jpg then something is terribly wrong. If you're shooting RAW then 6-8 is close to what is expected.
How long does it take for you to get that same 6-8 shots again? Your manual says an average RAW file is 20.2MB. That means 8 shots is about 161.6MB. At 6MB/s this means it will take at least 27 seconds to empty the buffer. If it's taking much longer than that (more than a minute) then it may be time to replace the card.
If your camera and SD card are working how they should, but you're still not happy with it then it may be time to replace them.
