QuestionI used this camcorder for the first time for about 38 minutes and for some reason, it saved the event in 4 separate files of about 10 minutes each, instead of 1 single continuous file. Why is that? Is there a settin GB I need to change?

QuestionIs this camera good for recording sporting events? And will a tripod attach to it?
Asked 2 years ago by Wayn.
- Answer Yes a tripod will work with it. Personally I'd say no on the recording spring events of you want a few long videos because it takes a long video & makes it into a bunch of short videos Incase it shuts off or something goes wrong with the sd card. But with a editing app b you can put the shorts back into one long video, just a plain in the butt having to do it. Hope this helps
