The following table shows the approximat
e length of footage that can be stored on a 256 GB

card
with different options selected for [Frame size/frame rate] (
0 189) in the video recording menu
when [
H.265 8-bit (MOV)] is selected for [Video file type].
Each shot can be up to 125 minutes in length. Actual capacity varies with shooting conditions and
the type of card.
The maximum capacity for each option is the maximum combined length of files that can be shot at
that frame size and rate.
Even when space remains on the memory card, recording may end before the maximum length is
reached if the battery runs low or camera temperature rises.
