I'm not too sure about the 12min limit, I remember recording 15min straight on a 32gb card I think... but I'll make a test on this later today.

@Snakekilla12 There is NO 12 min limit on the camera U can record up to a limit of 30 minutes or 4GB, whichever comes first. This is assuming you have a fast enough memory card that's able to write down the files quickly enough. The limit is with the way SD cards process info. All cameras will stop at 4Gigs on a SD card. The reason your camera is stopping is because it has reach the 4Gig limit of the memory card. ML just restarts your camera after the 4Gig limit has been reached.

@Snakekilla12 thats what I thought too, so mediaunlocked incorrect?

[MediaUnlocked]

@Snakekilla12 It can only record up 4gb files at a time. So if your not shooting hd you might be able to get more then 12 minutes

Thank you very much for the help and advice. Could you tell me how to use the Motion detection and sound detection modes/Do they work when in Photo mode?

Many thanks

[CountryPursuitsTV]

@MediaUnlocked That was the answer I was hoping for! Thank you very much I film wildlife and can not always be there to start the camera but if this will do it for me it would be awesome!
