Avoiding blurriness at start & end of video (even after using setPreferredVideoStabilizationMode:AVCaptureVideoStabilizationModeAuto)?

Video is blurry by its nature. 24 or 30 frames per second video will always have some blur in the shot because that’s the way our eyes are tricked into believing the pictures are actually moving. The longer shutter speed allows the camera to give the impression of motion.

Photos use a much shorter shutter speed (1/60th of a second or less) to give a clear, still picture.

There’s some info here on how to take a picture while recording video:
