k Shooting Movies
While shooting a movie, you can also
take a still photo by pressing the shutter
button completely.
Shooting Stills in the <k> Mode
When the movie-recording size is [1920x1080] or [1280x720], the
aspect ratio will be 16:9. When the movie-recording size is
[640x480], the aspect ratio will be 4:3.
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 card will record the movie and still photo as separate files.
Functions particular to still shooting are shown below. Other
functions will be the same as for movie shooting.
* The self-timer can be used before you start shooting a movie. If used during
movie shooting, the self-timer will switch to single-image shooting.
