The battery has a runtime capacity up to 3 hours using the camera only. From what memory serves, the amount of runtime for the camera roll is limited up to 1-3 hours of continuous recording before the camera stops and an alert pulls up saying you used up the memory on the camera roll.


Despit that you have a 16,32,64 GB flash storage, the camera roll is limited. So it's best to offload what's on there when its full into your computer and delete it. Then record more.
