Movie mode automatcially stops at 1280 x 720 When I have the camera in high quality movie mode, 1280 x 720, it will automatically stop recording between :15 - :30 seconds depending on how big the memory card is. The busy symbol will come on, to process the movie file & stop recording. What I do get, is that is says 33' 48" time remaining Shoot high definition (HD) movies. I should be able to record longer lengths - right??? Please help me if you know an answer to this.Thanks!!

I beg to differ in regard to use extreme III sdhc card. This is just a basic HD 1280x720 video. It is not needed to use higher class card. I have been using class 2 card to shoot video on this camera and I have no problem what so ever. I have been shooting video 30minutes non stop with no problem. If your camera shoot 1920x1080 I would suggest class 4 and higher.

How big is your memory card? Down load the movie file to your computer to see how big it is. If your memory still has a lot of room left, call Canon ASAP. If they say it needs to be repaired, I think you should return it to the place where you bought it from (if still w/in the return period). If not, you will need to send it to Canon (you pay for shipping w/ insurance).

The real problem is more likely the speed of your memory card. To record HD, you should use an Extreme III card, because the camera records faster than a typical memory card can store the data. The 15 to 30 seconds is how much your camera can hold on to while it's pushing the rest to the memory card, and once the buffer is filled, it has to stop or you would lose data.

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

How long a video you can record depends on the size of the memory card you are using, and the resolution and frame rate you choose. On a 32 GB card at the highest resolution (HD: 1280 x 720) you will get 1 hr. 59 min. 43 sec. of recording. On the same card at lower resolution (640 x 480) you can expect to get 5 hr. 59 min. 10 sec. recorded before your card is full. An 8 GB card will get you ¼ of that.This camera has many options for recording including Super Slow Motion Movie mode.

The camera does its own formatting - it's part of the setup procedure which you go through, 'format, execute'. I found that using a 32-GB memory card caused a lot of trouble, and fixed that problem by using an 8-GB card instead. Mine are SanDisk SDHC cards, class 4, but I think any ordinary SD card would work well. But I only do still photos, and perhaps a faster card than class 4 would be needed for videos.

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

I hope you mean a 32GB card. It all depends on the resolution you set at recording. Most if not all cameras have a max. record time of 29 minutes. But that's continuous recording. You can stop at that point and start recording again. SDHC card packaging has a chart on the back that gives recording times/photo count, at the various resolutions.

Sorry I do not have any personal experience with the sx260. I do like the sx280 a lot except for the movie function. In movie mode the battery managment is very bad and actually shuts the camera off after only minute or two of recording even on a freshly charged, high capacity battery. I followed the instructions to update the camera firmware, but it made no dofference with this problem on my camerra. Some people claim that their camera was fixed using this update but mine was not. My movie mode is virtually useless to me because of the battery issue. For the SX 260 I could only suggest reading other peoples reviews. I hope this helps.

The recording is only disabled while playing audio or video from the internal memory. It cant do both at the same time because of how Micro SD cards are configured. There is also an auto record feature that will automatically stop recording and play your video/auido files. Once all activity has ceased for about 45 seconds it will kick back on and it will start recording again. Interesting feature. - Nick at onlineenterprises888 If you have any more questions you can email me directly here in Amazon.

K., I am sorry, we have used the SD card to dump still shots onto instead of taking up the limited space... we have not used it for video. Typically we shoot our segments, put them to an editing program within a week and clear the memory to optimize its limited space. Sorry I could not be of more help. You may consider going to Canon's help site to see if they have a resolution.

Try with and without the image stabilization to see if that makes a difference. Also try at lower resolution. I just did "Fast 720P" with a clear picture, I also had record when moving so it only never recorded more that 5 min at a time. I have not noticed that problem yet, but I have notice jumps(screen goes blank?). Could be the card. Make sure it is a class 10 card. I just upgraded to 64gig SanDisk Extreme and will see if it makes a difference.

When shooting 640 x 480 Standard Definition, 1280 x 720 or 1920 x1080 High Definition, sound recording is automatically on. A note on the menu screen will say so. The High Speed movie setting is on, sound is not recorded. Best to download an owners manual and get a more complete answer. The manual is free at www.fujifilm.com/support/digital_cameras/manuals/pdf/index/f/finepix_f500exrseries_manual_01.pdf.

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.

The camera does not save footage, as in a movie. However, with the alarming function turned on it will allow you to save everything that happened in front of the camera (movement) which caused it to take a series of pictures. The length of the series can be varied, I have mine set to take 4 or 5 pictures over 5 seconds. This allows me to see what tripped the alarm and sent the picture to my email and hard drive and to follow up. You can save these posts as long as you want, the only downsize would be the eventual running out of space on your computer.
