How to record a video for 8 hours + night vision?




Cold Blood


I've been experiencing some poltergeist (noisy ghost) kind of activity in my house and I want to set up a camera in the most active room. I have a Canon EOS T3 Rebel, a memory card with 16GB space, and the standard battery the camera came with. What requirements do I need to reach in order to record a video that long as well as being able to see in the dark?


Answer
all dSLR type cameras have very limited continuous recording time. It doesn't matter how many GB are on your card, you only have 30 minutes before the sensor overheats in video mode and shuts off automatically. If you decide to use the highest video resolution of the camera, it will stop after recording 4 GB because that is the largest allowable file size, usually about 10 minutes. No camera battery is good for 8 hours of use, most cameras are sized for 2 hours operation with the standard battery.

what you need is a HDD type camcorder with an AC power adapter.

ghosts are camera shy, most likely they won't perform for you. If it is noisy, then you would be better off using a digital audio recorder which you could place in a room and walk away so as to not scare the poor poltergeist off. my olympus records for several hours on batteries.
