There is no Grab from Movies on the new camera's!!! What a shame,, better quality movies and now not able to grab a still from them...What gives, did some one forget to put it back in? Can you at least talk to someone there that knows Why on earth they did not put it back. And don't let them tell you its because it can take pictures in Hi Def, It still can take them in JPEG, I'm not that blonde! L, Kamie Hey Brad,

Hope that helps. I would think that you need to pause the movie during playback and press the shutter button in order to grab a frame. Hope that helps.

Two things that are missing here are red-eye removal and Intelligent Exposure – both of which can be used in shooting mode, but these two actions cannot be performed AFTER a photo is taken." Above is the sentence that I referred to in your article from the last e-mail I sent to you. I cannot find the grab feature on the new DMC-ZS3. One of reasons I purchased the new one (DMC-ZS3) was to get better stills from the movies. Am I missing something? Can't find the Grab a frame feature from a movie clip to turn it into a photo. Not in the book either that I could find. Sorry, Kamie “There aren’t any movie editing features in the camera but one interesting thing to mention is that you can “grab” a frame from a movie clip and turn it into a photo.

Purchased the new DMC-ZS3 with all the new bells and whistles. It does not seem to have the grab feature from movie playback that you mention in your article. Can't find that feature in their book. One of the reasons that I wanted this new one is that it took better movies, but now I can't get the stills out of them. Big reason that I bought the first one and also "sold" it to many other people was because of that feature. Am I missing something? I take pictures for the Duquesne Mary Pappert music school usually from the audience as I am the dean's wife. Having the better movie pictures was the main reason I purchased it and was looking forward to getting better stills from movies!!! Musicians move as they play their instruments and especially the piano. Again, am I missing something? Thanks, Kamie Love my old Lumix DMC-TZ3.
