I have used the BP-727 high capacity for both video and still pictures with my Canon HF camcorder on the same battery. My camcorder shows initially well over 200 minutes and I can film and take stills for that time. I don't use my BP-718 hardly at all any longer. I have two BP-727's and I get great performance and time out of this battery. It takes about 3 1/2 to 5 hours to charge with Canon's separate charger. I don't use the camcorder much to charge the batteries hardly at all now. I don't know if different camcorders/cameras require more battery power. I have used both BP-727s that I have and have found the same performance. One thing, I have only used the two batteries twice since I purchased them four weeks ago. However, we have been traveling out west and seeing many sights during that time. That said I believe I have had the camcorder in use for at least 14 hours and I have not found the batteries to diminish in power after recharging. Bottom line, I am extremely satisfied thus far. I hope this helps. Have a great weekend.

1:52 on a full charge but it automatically goes into battery-saving mode when not recording or if LCD screen is closed and not turned off. Mine has lasted for a whole day touring Europe but I carry a back-up just in case.

According to the documentation, it should record up to 29 minutes or 2 GB. But the only time I tried to record more than 10 minutes was my cousin's wedding, where it froze on me. So whether it's actually capable of recording up to spec, I couldn't say.

Will the battery last long enough to use a 16GB card and record 3 hours of 1080p footage, or 3,000 10mp pictures?

Yes, the unit will run on the battery. If the unit is on continuous recording, the power last about 4 hours. If it is in stand-by, motion detection mode, you should be good for 10-12 hours.

Mine lasts at least an hour of filming. I haven't used it longer at any given time so I can't speak to the exact duration.

Battery: The battery in this unit is intended to operate the unit for 15 seconds after power loss due to an accident or crash. If the unit is turned on without the Cigarette Lighter Adapter attached you can manually start recording and the camera will operate for approximately 1.5 hours on battery power. Note that the screen will turn off after 30 seconds to conserve battery.

I havent ran the battery dead while recording yet but if i remember right i watched a reveiw that said that tge battery lasts from half an hour to an hour depending on the quality of the video you use.

I haven't used the camera much. I bought it for others to use, so I'm not an expert. But from what I've seen, my guess is that it will take a couple of hours of video. If the charge life is a concern, I suggest getting a second battery.

About 45 minutes (there is no low resolution mode, it's always HD). Yes, the recording time is dependent on the battery.

I have recorded up to 6 hours on one battery and still had some left it may make 8 or u may have to switch batteries part way through

alot depends on how much zooming starting stopping recording and turning on and off gennerally I get about 70 to 90 minutes of time out of a charge

No. It last only an hour or one and half an hour of continued recording. At six months of recharging batteries, this time is reduced to 15 minutes or less. After 9 or 12 months of use, no charge. Good video with sound.

around 20-25 minutes, no matter how big your memory card is. It uses temperature sensing to cut off the video camera and prevent overheating. The camera will tell you exactly how many minutes and seconds it will record, before you press the record button.

A new battery fully charged should record at least 2 hours continously. However if you let it set in camera for some period of time it will affect the recording time. I have two batteries of which I fully charge both when I plan a recording session. This enables you to have peace of mind in that when the first battery is discharged you have a backup to use while recharging the first battery. I know this is a little expensive but, being prepared to capture the moment makes it worth while.

It's the battery only. My experience has been that is will last you about an hour and a half if you record video that entire time-frame.

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.
