does the camcorder automatically switch from the internal memory to the sd card automatically when the internal card is full from a long recording?

No. A text message comes up on the screen and tell you that you are out of internal memory and cannot record any more. Then you go to the tool box and switch to the card.

I don't think so; but never have that experience because as the memory (either internal or of SD card) is approaching the full capacity, a warning (of how much recording time left) is showed on screen, in form of "seconds".

I have two cameras. You can set it up to automatically switch if you like or change it manually.

Yes, it WILL overwrite old data when the SD card becomes full. Additionally, it will resume recording when power is lost and resumes.

If you don't want to record anything, you can simply use the power switch on the unit to turn it off. Of course, every time you stop/start the vehicle along your journey it's going to turn on automatically. Not sure what purpose you're trying to gain setting the recording time to off other than to perhaps stop it overwriting the card when full. When that happens, it displays Card Full and stops recording. I have a 32gb card and just let it continuously overwrite.

No it will not. At the camera will just stop recording when the card runs out of space

This question might be more about the camera than the memory card. I use a much cheaper video enhanced camera, the Kodak easy share max Z990, and have had no problems with this memory card automatically stopping while filming a video. I have videoed for over an hour straight and could have continued longer. The playback on my iMac 21.5 inch full screen was excellent.

The recording is only disabled while playing audio or video from the internal memory. It cant do both at the same time because of how Micro SD cards are configured. There is also an auto record feature that will automatically stop recording and play your video/auido files. Once all activity has ceased for about 45 seconds it will kick back on and it will start recording again. Interesting feature. - Nick at onlineenterprises888 If you have any more questions you can email me directly here in Amazon.

There are instructions that tell you how. It's easy to switch back and forth between video and photos. I've had some trouble with the camera or the speed of the micro SD card not being able to write fast enough. The result is that the image gets stuck on a frame. If you're looking for a reliable camera, I would search elsewhere. This behaves more like a toy!

I have no idea yet,I only film weddin days and 64GB are more than enough for me if 64 is not enough for you the camcorder can record to 2 memory cards in sequence

No, it will continue recording new 5 minute chunks until the card is full. When the card fills up it will start overwriting the oldest video. I haven't had to worry about it, I have a 32GB card in mine and the battery only lasts about an hour and 10 minutes, so it never fills the card. Also note that it only records five minute chunks in "vehicle" mode, in normal mode it will record one long video.

You have to manually wipe it to re-record. Its capacity to record depends on the size of the memory card. I replaced the card that came with it because it had a very limited capacity (I think less than an hour at high resolution). With my 32 Gb SD card, it easily stores more than 4-hours of high resolution video.

No real need to do that. If you set the timer to 10 mins. it will just record in successive 10 min increments until the SD card is full at which time it will be to erase segments, oldest first and re record over them.

Yes. It dose automatically loop through old video files once it reaches full capacity.

Yes, but new file created each time. Pause left on too long camera goes off.

I'm sure answers will vary , one the memory used and the battery, mine records for approx 2 hours , and it make a file at 59 min , then it will automatically begin a new file . I don't know why it does this but it works fine. it does tend to get a little warm when recording for a long period of time.

It is a auto feature. I have a 32gb card in it which records about 16 hours when the sd card gets full it automatically starts recording over the old files. Nothing manual at all.

Actually, there's something in the manual about a video limit (NOT card limit) of 2GB (Video recording) at a time, but I am unclear about what happens then. Does one simply start recording again or is the max 2GB size just inaccurate; at that point. In any case, I don't think I'll be doing 2GB clips; without pause anyway, so no big deal.BTW, I like a 4GB (or bigger) SDHC (extreme III and reader) because I can take a bunch of pictures and still have room for video clips. I have extra 4GB cards not yet open.
