However, until now, you could only capture 15, 30 and 60-second segments. While the new 3-second addition is seemingly minor, it is well-suited to social media creators who post ultra-short-form clips.<\/p>\n<p>There are two ways to create Motion Photos. The first is to mark the sections of footage that will comprise the shot while recording with your camera by pressing the Shot Mark Button. The segment will then be auto-transferred to the app. The other option is to select the segment after shooting directly in the app, by loading the footage and pressing the Create Motion Photo button.<\/p>\n<p>            You may like<\/p>\n<p>The new Motion Photo update only applies to the Sony Creator\u2019s App. Anyone using the older Imaging Edge App doesn\u2019t need to update as this app does not support the feature.
