Video Shooting Time Limit

The maximum recording time of one video clip is 29 minutes and
59  seconds.  The  recording  will  stop  automatically  when  the
limit is reached.

This  happens  to  let  the  camera’s  internal  temperature  cool
down. It gets hot because a mechanism is holding the mirror up
while the video is recording.
