Reference — DCS 465 Camera Back 9-3
There are sixteen megabytes of DRAM in the DCS 465 Camera Back. The
camera system is ready for the first shot within 0.25 second after the
shutter release is depressed, is ready for the second shot approximately
one minute later and then subsequent images can be taken at intervals of
approximately eight seconds. The interval time of eight seconds was
recorded when using an Intergral Peripherals Viper 170 model 8170PA
PCMCIA card. Your times may vary depending on the card you use.
You can use one of the supplied software drivers on your computer to
update firmware (nonvolatile memory) in the camera back that controls
how the camera works. This is a key feature since this design means it is
possible for you to update camera firmware yourself as it may be released
by Kodak instead of returning the camera for firmware updates.
A self-test of camera performance is available to you through a button on
the Control Panel of the software driver. This can be helpful for field
troubleshooting before you call Kodak. Refer to chapters 10 (Macintosh)
or 11 (PC).
