# recommendedVideoFormatForHighResolutionFrameCapturing

Returns a video format that the framework recommends for high-resolution-still-image capture.

```
class var recommendedVideoFormatForHighResolutionFrameCapturing: ARConfiguration.VideoFormat? { get }
```

## Discussion

The framework determines the resolution of the camera feed and still-image capture for this format. Call this function when your app requires a high-resolution still capture regardless of format specifics. If instead, your app requires a particular resolution, iterate over the [`supportedVideoFormats`](/documentation/ARKit/ARConfiguration/supportedVideoFormats) array and choose a format with the desired configuration where [`isRecommendedForHighResolutionFrameCapturing`](/documentation/ARKit/ARConfiguration/VideoFormat-swift.class/isRecommendedForHighResolutionFrameCapturing) is `true`.

Other video formats may support still-image capture but at a lower quality or resolution.
