[QUOTE="SageGator, post: 199644, member: 16784"] We just upgraded from the D80 to the D7100. Our video camera (Canon HFS20) was stolen, so we liked the video capabilities of the D7100 (actually MUCH better than most high-def cam corders, especially when combined with a nice lens). When we had separate video and still cameras, my wife and I could record events like birthdays, etc with both pictures and video. But now we have just the D7100. Is it possible to capture still photos/images (jpg) while recording video? Our Canon video camera had this capability, which was very nice. There was a separate button that allowed you to take a picture while it was recording the video. So does the Nikon have this feature? If not, then I suppose I'll have to try to figure out a way to do this with software after pulling the video down to my PC/Mac. So any pointers on how to do this would be great as well!! Thanks in advance for any assistance!! [/QUOTE]
