The number in ( ) is the minimum recordable time.
Continuous shooting is possible for approximately 29 minutes at one time. The maximum size of a
movie file is up to approximately 2 GB.
Notes
The recordable time of movies varies because the camera is equipped with VBR (Variable Bit
Rate), which automatically adjusts image quality depending on the shooting scene. When you
record a fast-moving subject, the image is clearer but the recordable time is shorter because more
memory is required for recording. The recordable time also varies depending on the shooting
conditions, the subject or the image size settings.
You cannot record movies to the internal memory when the movie image size is [1280x720(Fine)]
or [1280x720(Standard)].
