Recording a video

Record Full HD videos (1920 X 1080) of up to 20 minutes. The camera saves recorded videos as MP4 (H.264) files.

H.264 (MPEG-4 part10/AVC) is a high-compression video format established by the international standards organizations ISO-IEC and ITU-T.

If you use memory cards with slow write speeds, the camera may not save videos properly. Video recordings may be corrupted or fail to play back correctly.
