Continuous Movie Shooting Time - Sony FDR-X3000 Read This First Manual

The time measured when using one fully charged battery pack
( ) indicates the recording duration when the Wi-Fi remote control is set to off, and for playing time,
when the camera is connected to a TV by an HDMI cable (sold separately).
The recording time may be shorter, depending on the recording conditions.
The recording time may be longer when you set the Wi-Fi or GPS

Shooting 4K movies and connecting to the Wi-Fi network requires a lot of electric power, so
continuous movie shooting may cause overheating of the camera. To protect the camera, the
power turns off automatically when overheating occurs.
When you start shooting a movie after leaving the camera turned off for a while, the continuous
movie shooting time (the time from the start to the end of shooting) shown below is available.
The recordable time may be shorter, especially when you shoot 4K movies in a high temperature
environment.

The continuous movie shooting time varies depending on the file format, image quality setting,
network environment of Wi-Fi, and how the camera was used before recording. When you check
the composition repeatedly with the camera powered on, overheating will occur and the
recordable time will become shorter.

When the movie shooting is stopped because of overheating, leave the camera turned off to cool
down for a while. You can start shooting after the camera temperature becomes lower.

control for a certain period of time, the camera's Wi-Fi function turns OFF automatically (Bluetooth is still connected)
to reduce battery consumption.
