HandyCam takes still pictures while recording in movie mode

Hi - I have just bought a HandyCam camcorder model no. HDR-CX220E. Although I am pretty sure I am shooting in movie mode (with celluloid film strip icon showing in the view finder) every now and again while filming the word 'CAPTURE' appears in the view finder with a red time 'progress' strip appearing for a few seconds. This happens multiple times (as though I am repeatedly pressing the PHOTO button which I definitely am not) So when I have finished recording I am left with a single video file plus several (unwanted) still photo .jpg files Does anyone know why this might be happening? Is it a menu setting I need to look at somewhere or is it some kind of connection issue with the PHOTO button on top of the camera? Help please!
