Canon R100 recording limit (1 hour)

Canon’s manual states the maximum recording time per movie for normal movies (mode-dependent).

Direct answer

Most Canon bodies have a per-clip maximum recording time (varies by model and mode). If your clip stops, you typically just start a new clip.

How to plan around the limit (steps)

1. Start recording normally.
2. Set a phone/watch timer so you’re ready to restart before the cap.
3. When the clip ends, press Record again to start a new clip.
4. For important events, rehearse once in your exact mode to confirm runtime, heat, and card reliability.

What it means in practice

For interviews/events, plan your recording around clip restarts. Heat, battery/power, and card speed can also affect practical runtime.
