How many hours are on this camera?

Not sure what the question really is. I'll assume: "What is the maximum recording time?" At the highest bitrate setting, you will chew through cards at the rate of about 27gb / hour. You also have the relay recording feature, so the two card slots in relay with 64gb cards gets you nearly 5 hours at the highest bitrate. Of course, you can always get more by trading down on the bitrate. Not sure if that was your question, though.

All depends on how you use the camera. Program the camera so that it powers off when screen is closed. If you shoot long video clips you will use more battery power. For me battery life can go for 1 hour to 4 hours depending on use. Take this tip from me -- always have another battery charged and ready for use.

I can't give you the number of hours. Perhaps google it to get something exact. However in usage I was able to vacation in Las Vegas last year, take photos all days for several days before recharging. Certainly not frequently. This is all approximate and based on my sketchy memory. :)

I haven't taken enough pictures to run the battery down yet. I'm sure the next time we go on a trip, I will find out. According to the manual: Shooting still images using the LCD screen the battery life is approx 225 min. and approx 450 pictures; using the viewfinder is approx 245 min and approx 490 pictures. Shooting movies using the LCD screen the battery life is approx 120 min and using the viewfinder is appox 130 min. Viewing still images on your camera the battery life is approx 290 min and approx 5800 pictures. I regret I can't tell you first hand, but I hope you'll find this information helpful.

A few hours unless you have the video going the whole time. The video will drain the battery faster.

It genuinely depends on how you use it. Lower quality video extends battery life. That being said I'm usually good for about 3 hours +/- .5 hours. I really do like this camera but I'm not a highly technical person. For my purposes (documentation) it is good enough.

There are two different size batteries, the larger of the two will give you about 4 to 5 hours of recording time using the viewfinder, less with the window monitor open.

yes - funny, I bought this camera specifically for my bike commute, which is about 30 min...one thing to note: if you record for over 30 min at a time it will chop it up into 2 separate videos, which can later be merged/edited if needed

Depending on what resolution and frames per second you have it set for, the battery can last anywhere from 8 hours to 3 hours on a single charge. The camera battery is quick to charge though so high quality video is always an option.

This is color camera, and if you use 32 GB, it will last at least 72 hours. Enjoy :)

The battery lasts about 2 hours of actual time used. The battery doesn't drain when the camera is off, which is nice. If you use the time lapse mode you can set it to take a picture every .5, 1, 5, 10, 30, and 60 seconds. The battery lasts the same amount of time whether it's taking pictures or videos.

Well the longest I have recorded without stopping is 5 minutes, but I'm not sure of the time. Check there main website for specs. I love this camera and its worth buying. Make sure you get an external battery.

Hi Sonja. Well I think it good for up to 5hrs. But this is the Worse camera I ever owned. It's Only good for "portrait shots". If some one or some thing is Very still for about 30seconds you'll be just fine. This camera needs about 6 seconds to snap the picture & reload. Way too Slow for average picture taking. I haven't used the video very much. I contact Sony about it & they said that's the best the camera can do. I hardly use that camera.. I also Don't like the way the colors come out.. I couldn't recommend this camera.

It maybe gives me 90 minutes to two hours of standard use, which includes filming of course, standby, occasional zooming, etc. That is just an estimate, and I have not actually timed it. But either way it is a lot longer that what the included battery offers.

I can shoot a little over an hour. I have used it for rock show where I filmed one set.You can use an external charger I believe. It is an excellent camera for low light shots!
