Recording long videos on LX5?

[lespaul]

Hey everyone,

I need to record a presentation that is about 2-3 hrs - does anyone know if I can use the Lumix LX5 for this? This is of course this is assuming I have enough/multiple SD cards, etc (will most likely be recording to AVCHD, not sure)

I thought I saw something posted about this on either Youtube or in my eBook (Photographers Guide to the LX5 - which is great btw) - but I cant seem to find it anywhere.

Guess my question is whether the camera can handle it with out any major issues (eg. overheating, etc - disregarding the storage issue).

Just wondering if anyone has done such a thing.

Thanks

I've never tried it, but it should be fine, since you can use the LCD for that long without overheating and it's the same image.
