Video shooting time: Is there any way to expand this?

The issue is the software Operating system is limited to 2 Gigs per recording session. If you are recording a long video such as a child's play then that's a problem. if stop recording and start another recording session you will be able to fill your card with video. I've rarely recorded continuously for 8 minutes so it's not a problem for me. Also if you reduce the resolution to something less than HD such as VGA you will quadruple your recording minute. Remember if you record a VGA you still have better resloution than DVD.

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 :)

Not sure, you may have to set the recording size to the smallest format: 30fps,

go to canon.com and pull up the camera - they tell you exactly how much space/second it takes to shoot video.

20 minutes in 1080p, 30 minutes in 720p and 5 seconds in high speed videos (400 fps or 1200 fps)

you can adjust it on the menu based on what you need, 120,240, 480, and1000 frame per s. the faster you got the lower resolution of film you had. i usually use 120 and 240 frame per second to capture running. and it s pretty

Yes this would certainly work, but I think its overkill for what you need it for. You could simply use the timer on the camera. Unless its candids that you are hoping to capture.

Yes. It has an option to place a full timestamp at the bottom of the videos.

I've done it the other way around. I shot something using a canon XAH! in SD mode using 24fps.I went into Premiere and created a new project using settings with 24fps. Captured the footage off the camera. Then I brought the video clip into the timeline. I then exported the workspace to media file,avi, with the setting 30fps. Came out good.

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.

Hi Alexander, the expected recording time would depend on the quality of videos you take. You can record on the highest quality for about 3 hours. Thanks_Mitch

There is a third factor limiting videos: in some areas, anything that records over a certain length of time (about 24 minutes) is categorized as a video cam and is taxed at a much higher rate. So many (most?) digital cameras have a built-in video limit of about 24 minutes.

You can use SD,SDHC,SDXC cards. Camera shoots in full HD video 1920x1080 resolution. Approximate continuous shoot time is 30 minutes or 4GB segments in MP4.

There is no slow motion mode available for video. You can probably do something with post production software.

You can either shoot video, set the timer (10sec to snap) or use a remote such as the Satechi.

There is a six hour mode, but you lose quality at that level. I prefer to record at no more than three hours for videos I plan to keep and replay more than once.

According to the manual:The maximum continuous recording time is under 20 minutes. Themaximum video file size is 1.8GB. When a video recording time ismore than 20 minutes or a video file exceeds 1.8GB, a new video fileis created automatically.
