Estimated Recordable Time of SD Cards

The estimated recordable time is only a guide. Differences may occur depending on the SD card in use and the battery condition.

The recordable time varies according to the settings in [System], [ SlotA_B Format], [ SlotA_B Resolution], [ SlotA_B Bit Rate] and [ SlotB_B Resolution].

The following is the recording time during audio 4ch recording. The recording time is longer for 2ch recording.

Memo

If the SD card contains files recorded by devices other than this camera recorder or files that are saved from a PC, the recordable time may be shorter or data may not be properly recorded.

For each file format, up to 600 clips can be recorded to one SD card on this camera recorder. When 600 clips are recorded to one card, the remaining space is displayed as 0 min regardless of the estimated recordable time, and no further recording can be performed.

When [System] is configured to “High-Speed”, the remaining time display for recording to the SD card will run out faster than usual.
