Just in case you want to try current git, i also changed a bit of logic.


My experiments:

- EOS 1000D: gets around 20 FPS				(released August 2008)
- EOS 100D:  gets around 13 FPS (before and now)	(released 
- EOS 750D: gets around 25 - 30 FPS			(released April 2015)
- EOS M10: gets a higher framerate ... (probably however returning a buffer).

I see no conclusive logic or timeline between what is not working at full framerate and what not.
