I'd say if possible, shoot both...but I'd put most emphasis on photos.
I'm mostly just looking to have video being an additional feature on the camera that will probably only be used for the animals.

Like you, the pictures are what I look at. I've got some amazing video footage from Alaska, and only looked at it twice since the trip back in 2005. (of course, it would have been nice to know that the video camera I bought didn't have the capability of computer download.) But the pictures are on my computer and I go back and look at them from time to time.

Plus, I use the pictures for some of my sites.
