I'm wondering if there is an advantage to taking pictures with the GoPro (single or burst) as opposed to just taking a video and taking stills from that using the GoPro Studio? Would it just be a memory problem or can it be more beneficial with the focus or something?

Thanks!

The advantage is to be able to pull out a photo from your video. Meaning, imagine that you didn't see something interesting while filming. But yu still have the ability pull that interesting shot from the video. Sort of a bonus photo.

Thanks for the reply Dr. Z, but I was more wondering if there is ever a point in just taking pictures when you can take stills from the videos?

i used to, but soon realised the 1080 quality you are limited to during that mode really isn't good enough
