does anybody know how much a 4 gb sd memory card can record for video??

[Manniacal]

sup guys. my uncle passed away last night and i need to know how much video can be held on a 4 gb memory card for a digital camera. it's 12 megapixels and i think the highest quality is at 480p. we're thinking about video taping for family over seas.

i'm at cnet.com right now watching a 30 minute answer and i don't even know if they will answer this question specifically it's a old video. hopefully people with video knowledge can help.

I guess it would depend on what else is on it?

r.i.p to ur uncle

[Manniacal]

thanks guys. yea i took the time to delete every photo and video. i'm still watching this dumb video. if anybody can help i'd appreciate it.

Record a 1-5 minute video, see how much space it takes up, then divide the total formatted SD card by that size, and multiply that number times the video length.

dang thanks. just figured out it takes exactly 29 minutes on the lowest quality.

(edit) maybe i'm wrong. i'll check back tomorrow when i get a fresh pair of batteries. thanks for the help.

Yeah, look into the manual about how long the batteries will last as well.

cool. it's a decent camera but the dumb part is it takes AA lithium batteries instead of having a rechargeable.

good look everybody. will be back later in the week with better news with the dumb camera.

sorry for your loss

best thing to do is take a laptop with you so you can transfer video to your laptop and then re record on the SD card
