SD card and time? For something like a 16 gig sd card, how long of a video can I take????

QVC says you get 20 minutes recording time for each gig. 4 gigs equals 80 minutes.

A 32-GB SD card should be able to record more than 2 hours of footage. Please note that the transfer speed needs to be 30 MBps (Ultra 1 Class 10). It will provide better recording results.

I'm sure you got it figured out by now, but to anyone else, I use a CLASS 10 SDHC 8GB card with no problems. Key is that it is CLASS 10. And the video length can be changed in settings.

It depends on the quality setting of the video. At the highest quality settings you'll get about an hour per 8GB. At the lowest quality setting (still viewable HD) you'll get about 3.5 hours per 8GB. You can buy 16GB cards (look for class 6 or 10) for about $20-25. It's more expensive than DV was (I shot DV for years), but you can carry the equivalent of about 120 hours of recording time (using 32 GB cards) in less space & weight than a single DV tape was.

I have a 16gb sd card in mine. A movie that is 1hr and 35 min is about 460mg and there are 1024 mb in a gb. It really would depend on how long your movies are how much room they would take up. Books, games, photos and music don't really take up that much space it is the movies.I also I read on other blogs that you can use a up to a 32 gb SDHC card in the device so you may research this option so you can set up the device as you see fit.

I used the 16GB, took over 1700 pictures / short video clips and only used about 1/3 of the space. Just a thought. However, I believe it takes up to 32GB. Good luck.

In my testing, 2 minutes of video used 41MB, so a 4GB card would hold ~200 minutes of video.

A timer is on screen as you take hi speed video. It corresponds directly with your available memory on your SD card.

I have to use continuous mode because several cameras are switched through. With a 32 Gig card (The largest it will handle) about 24 hours. That also depends on what you are recording, all my cameras are outside so there is always changing images. If you were recording in your home for instance where the walls, floor, furniture etc. don't change you'll probably get better time due to the way video compression works.

You can download the manual online - there is a chart, depending on image quality setting and memory card size you can potentially record long videos. For example on my T4i with a 32 GB card and maximum quality (nothing else on card), 88 minutes of video.

Greetings! I think that if you have a large enough memory card (SD XC) you will be able to shoot for that long. Actually if you set the video quality lower you can likely go much longer than 90 minutes, as the file size would be reduced. Hope this is helpful!

John: I'm using a normal sd card, with 32 GB capacity. Try to buy a fast one. Regards, I hope this help

Two hours at a time, just like with any other digital camera. Upload and start over. There is no external memory card and so you cannot increase the storage. I just use it for pictures since the audio is so bad.

I've taken short vids. I've not tried long ones. There are two things limiting videos - battery and SD cardsize. My 8 gb card gives stores about 30 minutes at the default. The battery dies fairly quickly as well. As far as action or POV, if you can figure out how to mount it, why not? The camera has a 1/4-20 mounting thread. Or there's always duct tape :)

I personally only use it to record for about 4 hours a day so I believe you can get about 12 hours of video on a 32 gb card and then it will record over automatically...You don't have to erase anything..

I get about two hours of video. I am using a 64gig SD. I could get more video but the two hour mark is the max run time on a full charge!

I have a high speed hd card. But if you dont mind lower quality videos you can use any sd card. Mine was under 20 I believe and holds a ridiculous amount of pictures.
