Capturing Still Images While Recording Movies
If the shutter-release button is pressed all the way
while recording a movie, one frame is saved as a still
image (JPEG image). Movie recording continues
while the still image is being saved.
• A still image can be captured when Q is
displayed on the screen. When z is displayed, a
still image cannot be captured.
• The size of the captured still image is the same as
the movie image size (A146). The image quality
is fixed at Normal.
B Notes About Capturing Still Images During Movie Recording
• Still images cannot be saved during movie recording in the following situations:
- When the remaining movie recording time is less than five seconds
- When Movie options (A145) is set to an HS movie option
• The frames of a movie that were recorded when a still image was being captured may not
play back smoothly.
• The sounds of operating the shutter-release button when saving a still image may be
heard in the recorded movie.
• If the camera moves when the shutter-release button is pressed, the image may be
blurred.
