An increase of the camera’s internal temperature may cause movie
shooting to stop before the maximum recording time shown in the table
above (p.163).
The maximum recording time of one movie clip is 29 min. 59 sec.
Depending on the subject and the increase in the camera’s internal
temperature, the movie shooting might stop sooner than 29 min. 59 sec.
