    • The values of the file size, recordable shots, and maximum burst were measured using a Canon’s testing standard 16 GB memory card and based on the testing standards (the aspect ratio of 3:2, ISO100, and the picture style set to Standard). These values may vary depending on conditions.
    • The values of the maximum burst were measured using a 16 GB UHS-I memory card.

    • Continuous shooting is possible until either the memory card reaches its limit or the recording time reaches 29 minutes 59 seconds.
    • Recording may stop even if the limit of 29 minutes 59 seconds has not been reached on some memory cards. SD Speed Class 4 or higher memory cards are recommended. Faster memory cards are required when shooting stills while recording a movie.
