[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 440281, member: 12496"] I don't know why, however, real world is, if 1080i at modest high quality exceeds about 30 minutes, then it probably exceeds 4 GB file size, which exceeds what FAT32 systems (memory cards) can store. The Nikon cameras use Quicktime .mov file format, which is subject to this. But all you have to do is to stop and start the recording again, for a new file each time. It would be a extremely dull movie if non-stop for a couple of hours. There are always natural breaks and pauses which are better if omitted. So, we end up with many smaller files, which can total 16 or 32 GB. The skill in movies is in the editing. You need good video software to put this final result together, such as CyberLink PowerDirector or Adobe Premier. As for learning, pay attention to the movies or shows on TV. Typically they are many dozens or hundreds of short clips, maybe not exceeding 10 seconds each. TV ads don't even approach 5 seconds. You edit and put them together in a video editor (and omit many of them). Keep it interesting, keep the highlights that show what you want to show, and omit all that will bore the viewer. This should be very clear after you've done it a time or two. But even then, the 4GB FAT32 file size limit is often the real problem. Blu-ray DVD can bypass it, but memory cards cannot. [/QUOTE]
