When this option is selected, interval timer photography (0 216) is not
available and any functions assigned to the shutter release button (such
as taking photographs, measuring preset white balance, and taking
image dust-off reference photos) can not be used when 1 is selected
with the live view selector. Select Take photos or Live frame grab to
use these options.
Press the shutter-release button all the way down to
end movie recording and take a photograph with an
aspect ratio that matches that of a movie frame (for
information on image size, see page 71).
Press the shutter-release button halfway to start
movie live view. You can then press the shutter-
release button halfway to focus and press it all the
way down to start or end recording. To end movie
live view, press the a button. The shutter-release
buttons on optional remote cords (0 394) function
in the same way as the camera shutter-release
button.
If the shutter-release button is pressed all the way
down during movie recording, the camera will
record a photograph without interrupting movie
recording. Photos are 1,920 × 1,080 pixels in size
(aspect ratio 16 : 9) and recorded at an image quality
of JPEG fine. Note that during movie recording,
photos are taken one at a time regardless of the
release mode selected; this restriction does not
apply if movie recording is not currently in progress.
