That's probably because most recorders don't REALLY take still images--most of them [any that i've seen, anyways] just do something called taking 'stills on the fly'; so let's say you're recording video of so-and-so; but then you decide to take a still image--well; at that exact moment when you take the still image; you're technically still filming video of that person; so what I'm saying is that your camera probably didn't actually save those images in separate files---I bet those images are actually a part of the video.

So; what you should do is find the exact point in the part of your video where you took your still images; and you should then be able to see how the still pictures turned out.

Now; if you really want to 'extract' those pictures out of the video; the best and easiest way I know of is just to hit the 'prt scrn' key on the keyboard to take a screenshot; and then paste it into the Paint program [or any image editor]and edit it to your satisfaction.




Lastly; another thing to do is simply to look @ the manual for your camera and find out if there's something that we're missing here.
