If the file format is set to MP4 (28M), continuous shooting is possible for approximately 20 minutes for each shooting (limited by file size of 4 GB).

Note

  • The recordable time of movies varies because the product is equipped with VBR (Variable Bit Rate), which automatically adjusts image quality depending on the shooting scene.
    When you record a fast-moving subject, the image is clearer but the recordable time is shorter because more memory is required for recording.
    The recordable time also varies depending on the shooting conditions, the subject or the image quality/size settings.
