Uses an estimated bitrate based on
resolution and frame rate. Actual
video file sizes vary by camera,
codec, compression and content.
If your camera or export software
shows a bitrate, enter it here for
a more accurate file-size estimate.

This is an estimate.
Resolution and frame rate do not
determine file size on their own.
Actual size depends heavily on bitrate,
codec, compression, audio and the
recording or export settings used.

Capacity figures use the advertised
storage size. Real devices normally
have less usable space because of
formatting, system files and other
stored data.
How video file size is calculated
Video storage is mainly determined by
bitrate and recording time.
A higher bitrate records or stores more
data every second, which usually produces
a larger video file. Higher resolutions
and frame rates commonly use higher
bitrates, but the exact amount depends on
the codec and recording settings.
For example, two
4K 60 fps
videos of exactly the same length can have
very different file sizes if one uses
stronger compression or a lower bitrate.
If you know the actual bitrate of your
recording or export, select
