Hi, it depends a bit on the camera. Usually triggering a capture in liveview mode however flips the mirror up and down, so it would not do what you want. But cameras support Mirror Up capture. - Nikons: set mirror up mode via "capturemode" config. you then need to do "capture-image" multiple times, first time flips up the mirror second time takes the actual capture. - Canon EOS ... would have to research it first.
