Q: QuestionCan you connect this camera via USB to a power source (computer or electric plug) and record at the same time? Is there a time limit to recording 4K? Does this camera suddenly power off? If so, why?
Asked by ConcertMusicRecorder.
- A:Answer You can can I get to USB power and record. at 4K 30 frames a second it will record about an hour before thermal protect kicks in if you have thermal protection set to low. At 60 frames it's about 24 minutes. This is with the screen folded open. If you drop it to 1080p mine recorded indefinitely without shutting down while plugged into USB.

Q: QuestionHow much memory/minute length can it record on its own? Can I insert a MicroSD or SD card
Asked by CBF1.
- A:Answer You will need a SD Card to record and depending on memory size card you insert and the if you record in 4K or 1080 is the amount of time you get to record. Recording in 1080: 64GB = 2hrs 30mins 128GB = 4hrs 44mins Recording in 4K: 64GB = 1hr 15mins 128GB = 2hrs 24mins I would recommend picking up a next battery though, as battery life is not the longest.
