 The 950 incorporated improvements over the 900 such as a stronger swivel hinge, a magnesium case (except the plastic battery door) and increased sensor resolution.The 950's ability to capture directly in TIFF format was unusual for the time, although the file transfer time (depending on CF card write speed available at the time) could be over 30 seconds in this mode.The 950 came with a 8MB CF card, and the card could contain only 1 image file shot in the TIFF mode (~5.6MB).
