To video-record for 90 minutes, would this be adequate, or do I need a 64 GB card? null

Question

ceja310 · Accepted Answer

i can record for 90+ minutes, given that my camera video settings was set to low. if you record at 4k or 1080p expect shorter recording lengths. but still very much possible. if you are looking to record more than 90 minutes then id advise to go with a 64gb.

This is sufficient.

There's several issues that need to be better understood before I can give you a definitive answer. First, at what resolution & frame speed will you be recording at? Secondly, what sort of camera will you be using, as some cameras like 35mm DSLRs might not be able to record for that entire length of time without stopping & beginning a new video file. Beyond that I can't really give you any specifics. Hope that is of some help.

32gb should give you over 2 hours of recording time with standard HD. However, keep in mind that many dslr cameras only allow for 12-15 minute recording segments before they shut off to prevent over heating. So, you would have to stop and start your recording.

Depends on Camera and whether you are filming SD or HD. Generally 4gb = 16-22 minutes of HD video, So a 32 GB card will hold approx 1hr 30 mins.

At least. Video eats up the space on a card. Would find a bigger card geared more toward shooting video

It really depends on the format you are shooting in. It's better safe than sorry so it's always better to go with more memory. 32GB might be cutting it close. I would for sure take a step up or maybe even a 128GB to be super safe.

Depends on resolution but I would buy 64 GB to be safe.

If you can get a bigger memory would be better my memory max was 32gb just make sure you can use a 64 or maybe 128 but as far as the brand I haven't had any issues

Depending upon the camera you use. My Canon 5D uses so much memory that I would probably go with the 64GB if it's an important event. You probably won't use it all but better safe then sorry.

It depends on density, frame rate and other factors, but more is never bad.
