how long can you record a continous clip?

As long as you want. I have one clip of a school play that is 45 minutes... you can record as long s you have battery power and card space, as far as I am aware.

I really don't know - I got very little use out of it before it died on me and during that time I never tried running it continuously until it "ran out" - I used it mainly for pictures, not for videos.

About 45 to 50 minutes. They are not continuous though. I have two of these. One is broken up in 3 minute videos and the other is in 5 minute increments.

I have recorded video in excess of 45 minutes... all depends on your memory card and its limitations. I use a 32 gig card with this camera.

The manual says 320 minutes for 1080, 480 minutes at 720/60 and 620 minutes at 720/30. I would go with what the manufacturer says (60 minutes). It records in cycles of 1 minute or 5 minutes, now keep in mind this is continuous in a sense. I keep my cycles to 1 minute, this way it won't take forever to upload to YouTube. Now I play them all back at once on my PC, the one minute clips let me cycle through a trip a lot faster. Searching through 5 minutes at a time could prove more tedious. My advice is to set and on one minute and leave it. I do delete my micro sd each day, even though it's not necessary, since it will cycle back around and over you oldest clips first.

There are different settings. I have mine set on 90 seconds, the maximum. After the 90 seconds if there is still motion another 90 seconds is recorded. It takes a minimal video program to splice them all together if need be.

record both vid+aud. Multiple files are recorded with around 3MB each at 30sec length. So 32GB/3MB = about 10666 files at 30sec each OR around 88hours

30 seconds to a minute I believe. But it will keep recording If the motion continues. Also, the way it files all the videos, each clip, makes it really easy to sift thru

You can set a specific time to record in 15, 30, 1 hour file. you can also do a manual recording, not sure if it will overwrite when its full or stop recording.

Hi Doowon, there is no capacity limitation for recording movies. If you are pertaining to 2GB limit per file, this is a normal operation and the movie would be divided. The maximum continuous recording time for the unit is 13 hours. Thanks_Mitch

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.

I am sure when you start the video recording mode, it says some where on the screen that the limit is 25 minutes.

At a setting of 1080 you can record 139 minutes of video. At 720 you can go 269 minutes. Files are in .mp4 format.

When recording anything more than a 5-10 minutes, I need to let it "warm up" by first recording some throw-away content for about one to two times the length of time of what I ultimately need to record. But after it is warmed up, it is fine indefinitely (or until I run out of disk space).

There is no setting for length of recording. Most of my recordings are between 15-30 seconds, but some have been longer. I don't feel that I "miss" any action in my recordings. My guess is that due to the "free" nature of the hosting service, it wouldn't record for an hour, etc.

The camera records continuously. When it detects motion, it saves a clip starting about 6 seconds before the event occurs.

I had it last as long as 3.5 - 4 hours of continuous recording. And as long as 3+ days using off and on.

No problem. According to the G30 manual, recordings can be as long as 12 hours, depending only on the size of the memory card. When a clip exceeds 4GB in size, the camera seamlessly creates another clip but playback is continuous.
