Video size problem

That's normal...

I have a 4 minute video and it's 175mb.

These files are actually small in the video world...consider this.

1hour 20min video at DVD quality is 4gig (9000 variable bps)

A 3 minute video file at Pro Ress 422 quality is 2gig (55,000 bps)

Video shot on Smartphones are generally very compressed video files.... what you are reporting is normal.

Whenever I record a video on my android the file size is MASSIVE! I recorded this great video twice for 2 minutes and the file size was about 50mb! Can anybody help?

The best solution for you is to get a larger sd card. You can get a 16gb micro sd on Amazon.com for 15 bucks. Whatever you do, don't get sd cards from Ebay. They are cheap, but knock-offs and worthless.
