Convert recorded video into Living Images with Microsoft's Lumia Moments app

Microsoft has just released a new app for Lumia Windows Phones, enabling consumers to extract shots from recorded footage on their smartphones and save the end result as a Living Image. Said animated images can be saved for future viewing or sharing with others. Unfortunately, the new app is available on a select few Lumia Windows Phones and requires the recent Lumia Denim update.

It's an app that will come in handy for those who frequently find themselves looking through recorded video to spot the best angles to create some impressive imagery. Using videos or 4K Moment shots, it's possible to use Best Frame to save content as Living Images, or Action Shot to add strobe and blur effects, highlighting action or motion.

As noted above, to be able to use Lumia Moments you'll need to be running the Lumia Denim update on the Lumia 830, Lumia 930, Lumia Icon or Lumia 1520.
