Buffer size is irrelevant with JPEG's and UDMA cards, but you're
unnaturally limited to 100 shot bursts by the firmware. Note this
applies to the D300 as well.
Active D-Lighting slows everything down and seriously reduces buffer
size when shooting RAW. Never tried with JPEG so I can't say.

This is a work related question - essentially is it possible to use a D3 or D700 as a low (5 fps) frame rate ultra-high resolution movie camera -up to the capacity of the CF card(s)? The largest UDMA CF cards I can find are 32GB so using a D3 I could get 64BGBs of movie - what JPEGs settings would be needed to turn that into a a max-resolution, max-number of frames? Can I still use D-light with these settings? Depending on the answers Nikon could be about to make a lot of money from my company.
