In the Shoot Mode setting for video recording on K750i, there's an option to select "For Picture message" or "High Quality Video".

Is there meant to be a difference? Cause if there is I haven't noticed it. If you select Picture Message setting, shouldn't it stop like after 20 seconds so it enables you to send it by MMS? It just keeps recording on mine. Is it just for the quality of the recording?

If that's the case then the problem is already solved with the "Video Size" setting. That enables you to select small or large clips.

So is the shoot mode a useless feature on K750i?

my picture message shoot mode stops after 10 seconds, whereas high quality mode doesn't.

I'm with optus, maybe their branding limits it. Optus may have a limit on mms sizes, and may have branded the handsets so that users don't get error messages?

The limit that Optus claim is 100kb that is gaurenteed to send. But that's crap cause the biggest I send is 300kb and 99% of them go through.

OK so it IS meant to stop after 10 secs? I thought so, wonder why mine doesnt? I had the same problem on my previous K700.

But it not too much of a big deal, now that K750 has video editing, you can trim any of your large clips to make them MMS compatible.
