Better Stills from Your Videos
Modern phones record video at the same resolution as many photos, which means every second contains dozens of usable pictures. A video frame extractor lets you pick the best one.
Finding the sharpest frame
Movement causes blur. Step through the moment slowly and capture a frame where the subject is still. Recording at a higher frame rate gives you more sharp frames to choose from.
Next steps
Convert the still to another format with the Image Format Converter, fit it to a post size with the Social Image Resizer, or test it as a cover in the YouTube Thumbnail Tester.
