No, not to my knowledge and I have gone through the manual and have not seen anything in it either. There is software that allows images from movies to be pulled though and that may suit what you're looking for. Here is a link to the manual for this camera. Nikon is good about making these available and it helped me in deciding to purchase this cameral. I hope this helps.http://www.nikonusa.com/E986CE29-1660-4352-BAF4-B0679C103862/FinalDownload/DownloadId-9A618DE8CDB47497A41DFD37F0170752/E986CE29-1660-4352-BAF4-B0679C103862/pdf/manuals/kie88335f7869dfuejdl=-cww2/AW100EN.pdf No, not to my knowledge and I have gone through the manual and have not seen anything in it either.

open the camera app and you can take or record video. your are going to need to have a memory card for additional storage.

I like to use my video software for this while using my desktop. You can capture any frame you like with this method. I find pressing the shutter button makes me move my camera a little while recording video and I don't that.

The other answer suggested the answer is no. However I recorded a short video and snapped pix while the video was recording and those pix were recorded as was the video. I doubt this is a feature I'd use since I generally don't record video on my camera.

Yes you can zoom while shooting videos. I'm not a professional but this is the best camera for zoom and has a sports feature that makes awesome photos! I can't brag on it enough. Best money spent on a camera!!

Yes. you can take video with this camera. Just push one easy button, you start to take video. It is HD video for 720P, but not for 1080P.

P.S. I forgot, I think it will allow pausing while recording.... but have not tried it myself.

yes, there are separate controles for camera and video. and yes, while videoing, you can snap photos

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.

ken....absolutely....just put the setting on the camera icon / push the shutter button to start / again to stop. it shoots pretty good quality video, too ! upload it to your computer as a gif file/avi file & watch it from there . i taped my son playing tennis with good audio & video quality.

Yes you can as the other comments covered the subject well. I have never checked but I think you need the camera operating to take a still photo?

Yes you can. Pressing the shutter button half way will focus and then press it rest of the way to take picture(s)

Photos CAN be taken while recording video. But this option is not available during High Speed Movie Mode. There is a limit to the number of photos that can be taken during video recording.

You would need some video capture software. This is NOT a USB or IP camera.

When shooting videos, how do I shoot still photos at the same time (apparently older M1+Mii could do this)?

I presume that you mean a video capture, rather than a (still) screen capture. Yes, you can, including audio, though the quality will be reduced.

I don't believe so. You can set f stop and shutter speed manually for a still frame picture, but I believe once you put the camera on video, it is all automatic.
