Shooting Still Images while Shooting a Movie

You can shoot a high quality still image* while shooting a movie.

*The recording pixels and compression are the same as those set for still images (excluding []).

1 While shooting a movie, press the shutter button

halfway to focus.

Press the shutter halfway so the camera can focus and set exposure for the still image. During this process, movie shooting continues.

2 Press the shutter button all the way to shoot the

image.

The movie goes black for an instant while the still image is shot, and then returns to normal. However, sound recording continues uninterrupted.

The shutter sound is also recorded (and cannot be disabled).
