    Hi there,
    What is the recording time on a 32gb SXS card at 1080/30p? This probably seems like a silly question. However, yesterday, I had called a couple different VARs and got conflicting info – at the highest res/frame rate, one said you could record a few hours, the other said 15 min…
    Cheers,
    Shane

    About 114 minutes. It’s a VBR codec so it can vary slightly. XDCAM EX (HQ) is 35mbps (Variable) so frame size or frame rate makes no difference. Overcranking is another story since that can be up to 87.5mbps (24/60)
