From the Foveon website:

"The unique design of Foveon X3 image sensors enables them to handle both 
functions without compromise. To capture full-color images at video rates 
(typically 30 frames per second), simply reduce the resolution. And since 
the sizing of pixels can be done in an instant, a Foveon X3 image sensor 
can capture a high-resolution still photo in the midst of recording video. "
