It has a small amount of onboard RAM to 'buffer' images or a small amount of video but there is no actual storage nor can you add storage (using an SD card or something similar).You can stream video off the camera and there is some (expensive) software that can save that video while its being streamed but you wont be able to actually store/archive on the camera.

Internet service can be used with the camera. Large amounts of video can be recorded and, if needed, downloaded to the computerhttp://www.tenm3.com/blogs/?p=176

It depends on the size of the SD card you put in. I use an 8 gig SD card and the highest quality video setting i.e 1080p and I have recorded over 2 hours but never checked for the maximum.

I think it's at least 500 - 800, depending on your settings. If you're worried about the capacity why not just get a 4Gb card for the camera? They're going for under $10... I'm still amazed at the quality of the pictures... Video quality is also good. making stills from the video is a pain but much better than I dared hope for...

Don't bother getting higher than 64GB though. I have the 128GB and the crappy GoPro (Black 4) crashes at certain capacity (seemingly not even 25%) and won't record until I delete a load of stuff. Alternatively, buy something better than a GoPro and you will be able to do cool things like record 1080p @ 120fps without it drastically reducing the quality thus making it pointless to film in 1080p resolution in the first place. Yay Lexar, boo GoPro

Hi! I actually never run out on build in 32gb.Photo works for sd. I was able to copy video from main drive to a card... I didn't tried to film on sd card. If I will try, I will consider to get some fastest card possible, because regular cards can be not able to process so much data. But I really like that camera!

So what your saying is this device has no internal storage? I have a Passport 500GB, can't I just set up on the Motion record and delete every other day?

I use a 32Gb memory. When I bought it I checked Sony website and it doesn't say anything about maximum storage in a external drive. Perhaps you should ask Sony. Either Way I Guess It Must Support 128Gb considering the quality of HD video recording.

I don't remember exactly, last time when we used it in a long travel, I had my laptop with me to and moved periodically all videos to hard drive. Few hours, may be, but I recorded in low 640x480 res.

I have never had to record a shot that was non-stop so I dont know, but I would assume you would run out of storage space before the battery died. The battery life is quite impressive

I really don't know - I got very little use out of it before it died on me and during that time I never tried running it continuously until it "ran out" - I used it mainly for pictures, not for videos.

I do not know if it works because I never buy larger than 64 GB. I use 1 X 64G and 3 X 32 GB. I can record about 3hrs on 32GB and 6hrs on 64GB is all you need for a baptism, a wedding or other shooting.

Hi, Eric...that would depend on how large a memory card you have :-) I have an 8Gb SD memory card in mine & I have taken over 7 minutes of video with it & never ran out of space. I haven't pushed it beyond that point but have read in reviews that the average time you can video in 1080p with an 8Gb card is 22 minutes. I'm sorry I can't be of more help. :-(

You can store those videos into camera memory. It is a flash drive. (No playback feature).

Good evening, the recording time will depend on the amount of memory that you put, 4, 8, 16, 32 or 64 gigabytes.Recording until memory runs out, the battery does not last long, you should buy a backup.The videos are excellent.

it'll take up to 32 gb, i tried a 64gb samsung and sandisk but the cam will crash and you have to wait until the battery runs out before it'll work again since theres no hard reboot function

This camera can not store any video. It is just a camera with a microphone. You will need a DVR to store the video and audio. Don't get me wrong, this is a good little camera just no storage. Hope this helps.
