Good to know

  1. Motion Photo is off at the start of the recording (its top-bar icon is grey) and on at the end (icon yellow, toast shown) — a real change is demonstrated.
  2. Motion Photo only applies in PHOTO mode; the mode strip at the bottom must show PHOTO selected.
  3. With Motion Photo on, each photo also captures a short clip of the moment around the shot.
