Solution

See below for approximate recording times.

Memory card	Video quality (Resolution)
Memory card	24 Mbps (1920x1080)	17 Mbps (1920x1080)	4 Mbps* (1280x720)
8 GB	40 min.	1 hr.	4 hr. 20 min.
16 GB	1 hr. 25 min.	2 hr. 5 min.	8 hr. 40 min.
32 GB	2 hr. 55 min.	4 hr. 10 min.	17 hr. 20 min.
64 GB	5 hr. 55 min.	8 hr. 20 min.	34 hr. 45 min.

* For MP4 movies only.

A single scene can be recorded continuously for 12 hours; at that point, the camcorder will stop for about 3 seconds. After that, recording will continue as a separate scene.

Approximate number of photos available on a 4 GB memory card

The numbers given in the following table are approximate and vary according to recording conditions and the subject.

Photo size	Number of photos
L　4000×3000	750
M　1920×1440	3200
S　640×480	23500

NOTE

Bit rate (measured in Mbps) indicates how much information is recorded in 1 second of video and therefore affects also the recording time available on the memory card.
Depending on the device used, you may not be able to play back your recordings on other devices.
When scenes recorded at 24 Mbps are played back on other devices, audio will be output only if the device is compatible with LPCM audio.
The camcorder uses a variable bit rate (VBR) to encode video so the actual recording times will vary depending on the content of the scenes.
The following types of MP4 scenes will be recognized as multiple files on other devices.

- Scenes exceeding 4 GB.

- Scenes exceeding 1 hour.
