Re: camera memory size = minutes ? Posted on: Mon, 12 May 2008 09:01:10 -0400

I didn't have it in manual but DID just find it in sales info for SD cards
at kodak.com
Thanks folks.

In case someone could use it:

I thought 15 vs 30fps would be a difference of 2x - not so:

Memory Card Capacity* by Image Resolution
Video Duration (min:sec)
QVGA VGA
15 fps 30 fps 15 fps 30 fps
1 GB 120:54 28:48 63:02 7:12
512 MB 60:17 14:28 31:57 3:39
256 MB 30:08 7:12 15:58 1:49
128 MB 15:04 3:35 7:59 :54
64 MB 7:32 1:46 3:59 :26
32 MB 3:46 :52 1:52 :13

QVGA = 320 × 240, VGA = 640 × 480, fps = Frames per second.
