The number in ( ) is the minimum recordable time.
Continuous shooting is possible for approximately 29 minutes at one time. The maximum size
of an MP4-format movie file is up to approximately 2 GB.
Note
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 quality/size settings.
