Quick Tip: Take a picture while you are shooting video on your iPhone 5

iPhone 5 photography how toOne of the helpful features that the iPhone 5 offers that none of the other iOS devices offer is the ability to take a picture while shooting video. This means that you get the best of both worlds. You can be capturing a memory or experience on video and when the perfect photo opportunity arises, you can capture that too.

Taking a photo in video mode is simple. While you are recording, simply tap the Camera icon in the bottom left corner of the screen. This will capture the photo while continuing to record video. The only downside is that the resolution is less than if you were just in Camera mode. Cool feature nonetheless!
