Hello, is there a way with this camera (or any other) to record at least 24 hours ?
Can the quality of video or frames-per-second be lowered to the point, that 24 hours of video would fit to a 32GB SD-card (for this camera, it looks like SD Card up to 64GB can be used) ?
Basically, I don't really need video. Something, called "time lapse photography" would do just fine. One photo every few seconds. I know, that this is not good enough in traffic, because a lot can happen in one second, but I'm planning to use the camera as a security cam, not as a dashboard one.
A very rough calculation (I'm no good with numbers) shows, that 43200 photos would be taken in 24 hours, if camera would take one photo every 2 seconds.
If you wanna squeeze 43200 photos on a 32GB card, they shouldn't be bigger as 776kb each.
I didn't find the User's manual online to see, what adjustments are possible with this camera. From some technical details, I see:
- Write speed (FPS / Frames per second): 10/20/30
- Recording Resolution: 640×480 / 848×480 / 1280×720 p
- Still Image: Image File Format:JPEG .
So it can be set up for 640x480, 10fps ? How many hours of video can be recorded with such setting ?
What does "Still Image" mean ? Do you have to push the button every time you wanna make a photo, or can you set "one photo every 5 seconds", for example ?
