CAN IT ALSO TAKE STILL PICTURES?

Short answer: no, get a proper stills camera for that. However since it shoots raw, it saves each frame as a separate dng file within a folder so technically you could grab a still from the dng sequence.

No, its a cinema camera, so it only takes video. For pictures could just buy something from cannon's Eos line, Panasonic, Nikon (most dslr's will work fine plus some can shoot good video). But if you want something that take good video and photos look at Panasonic's GH line, especially the GH4 which is becoming quite popular right now.

I can't say for sure. We only use it for pictures. I do think it has the capability though.

Yes it can but not as Good as a DSLR. I don't know what the megapixal rating is on the stills.

You can enable continuous shooting in auto mode, and it will take pictures very quickly, so there will not be a delay.

yes, it can be used like a regular digital camera. In fact, sometimes it takes better pictures than my DSLR. It has many different settings/filters such as for sports, sunsets, HDR, etc

Certainly! Just like any other camera you can buy extra batteries and an external charger so you always have a fresh battery available.

I never use it, but from what I remember, people who reviewed this camera said that still photographs were low quality. They suggest using a dedicated camera for stills.

With this Sony model you cannot take a still photo while shooting video. On some previous models you could. Sony took that feature away on this one - and I was unhappy to find that out (after I bought the camera)

Yes. However it does not allow use of automatic focus or aperture settings...you must manually focus and set aperture ... Aperture priority works, or use full manual exposure.
