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. 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 determined by

the movie image size (A130).

B Notes About Capturing Still Images During Movie Recording

• Still images cannot be saved during movie recording in the following situations:

- When movie recording is paused

- When the remaining movie recording time is less than five seconds

- When Movie options (A130) is set to d 2160/30p (4K UHD) or c 2160/25p (4K

UHD), g 480/30p or W 480/25p, or HS movie

• 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.
