The maximum clip length is approximately 10 minutes based on the default settings. Recording may stop before that depending on the type of SD card you have in the camera, so SD Speed Class 4 or higher memory cards are recommended for best results.  The total shooting time available on a 4gb card would be approx. 26 minutes, and approx. 1 hour 49 minutes on a 16 gb card.

Hope that helps!
