Setting the Movie Recording Size
Movie Files Exceeding 4 GB
Even if you record a movie exceeding 4 GB, you can keep recording without
interruption.
z
Using SD/SDHC cards formatted with the camera
If you use the camera to format an SD/SDHC card, the camera will format
it in FAT32.
With a FAT32-formatted card, if you record a movie and the le size
exceeds 4 GB, a new movie le will be created automatically.
When you play back the movie, you will have to play back each movie
le individually. Movie les cannot be played back automatically in
consecutive order. After the movie playback ends, select the next movie
and play it back.
z
Using SDXC cards formatted with the camera
If you use the camera to format an SDXC card, the camera will format it
in exFAT.
When using an exFAT-formatted card, even if the le size exceeds 4 GB
during movie recording, the movie will be saved as a single le (rather
than being split into multiple les).
o
When importing movie les exceeding 4 GB to a computer, use either EOS
Utility or a card reader (
=
557). It may not be possible to save movie les
exceeding 4 GB if you attempt this using standard features of the computer’s
operating system.
