Question

Answer 1

Any video editor will be able to grab a frame.

Warning: a still captured like this will not look very good - if there is any movement, it will be blurry. Camcorders work because they can fool your eyes into thinking there is motion when it is actually a series of stills...

Answer 2

ya i think you could if you hook it up to a PC & dowm load it & then go to make a movie & you could take from there all so what kind of camcorder you have because some camcorder  have like built in cammera at the same time your recording you could take a snap shot of what your recording i hope i was some help to you good luck ,lol
