S100 video before taking a picture

Hi everyone,

 

Was wondering if someone could help me here. I have an S100  and when I uploaded pictures from my SD card, I noticed that i had a single video of what looked like video recordings of the subjects a few seconds before each picture. 

 

I thought this was a very nice feature, but am wondering how to set it up as I stumbled upon it by accident. It looks as though once the shutter is half pressed and focused, the video starts until the picture is taken and this occurs for every single picture taken. At the end you are left with a single video with all those 2-3 videos combined.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thank you so much,

John

It sounds like you are in SCN mode and from there you have selected Movie Digest setting. It will take a short 2-4 second video.and then take the picture. I just used that setting on my SX50HS camera at my daughters gradutation.

These are from pages 60 and 72 of your user manual, there is more information there too but this is the idea of what you have:

The first one is of steps 1 and 2 they refer to,
