Shooting Still Photos

Taking still photos during movie shooting
If you take a still photo during movie shooting, the movie will record
a still moment lasting approx. 1 sec.
The captured still photo will be recorded to the card, and the movie
shooting will resume automatically when the Live View image is
displayed.
The movie and still photo will be recorded as separate files on the
card.
If [Record func.] (p.118) is set to [Standard] or [Auto switch card],
the movies and still photos will be recorded to the same card. If
[Rec. separately] or [Rec. to multiple] is set, the movies will be
recorded to the card set for [Playback]. The still photos will be
recorded at the image-recording quality set for the respective card.
Functions particular to still photo shooting are shown below. Other
functions will be the same as for movie shooting.
