-        * Benchmark runs in photo/stills and movie mode may differ quite a bit. In photo mode numbers are higher because benchmark will surpress most of ML code during benchmark run.  Therefore numbers in photo mode are close to limits of card/cam combination without overhead caused by ML. Benchmark runs in movie mode are closer to reality (when recording). Another benchmark will be shown in footer lines of movie tab inside MLV menu. Those numbers are processed by the MLV module itself. Take this calculation with a grain of salt.+        * Benchmark runs in photo/stills and movie mode may differ quite a bit.
