  • Continuous movie shooting time is approximately 13 hours maximum.
    However, when the movie format is set to MP4 and the imaging frame rate is 240p/200p in high speed recording, the continuous movie shooting time is approximately 4 hours 50 minutes maximum, when the imaging frame rate is 120p/100p in high speed recording, the continuous movie shooting time is approximately 9 hours 40 minutes maximum.
  • The times shown are recordable times using a Sony memory card.
  • When you play images recorded in high speed, the frame rate will be 60p/50p, and playback will be standard speed.
