Your GoPro Hero9 recording time will vary depending on the resolution set and the sd card capacity.
On the Hero9, both 5K and 4K have a bitrate of 100 Mbps, which translates to 12.5 Mbp, or about 750MB per minute.
A combination of these settings (bitrate, frame rate, resolutions) determines the file size of footage capture on the card.
