Mavic Air - Video and Photo at the same time

[LeRoytheBoy]

I was wondering.
Is it possible to take a still photo while shooting a video at the same time with my Mavic Air. ??

No. You could take still images from the video post flight.

Be aware that saving frames from video will not produce images of the same quality as shooting stills.
Stills = 4056×3040 = 12MP
Video = 3840×2160 = 8.3MP
Video shutter speeds are often significantly slower which can mean images are less sharp as well.

I have dabbled with this and did notice a slight degenerate in the quality when taking stills from a vdo on my computer.
That's why I asked that question in the first place.
As I know that while taking a VDO with my phone, I can still take still shots.
Was hoping that there was a trick with my Mavic.
