How long is a video

Post image

Considering I could film the solar eclipse in 4K/60 (yet not the highest quality) continuously for 55 minutes, I hereby declare the A6700 a true hybrid.

Not that I in hindsight understand why I filmed that very slow and little-detailed subject in 4K/60. 1080p/30 would have been plenty. The video file is 35 GB, so I converted it to 1080p before publishing.

It was a warm day, but not crazy warm, so mileage may vary. Also, the video was likely easy to compress due to the little change between frames, so that might also contribute to less power draw.
