Q. I was wondering what the FPS on the STILL CAMERA is. If you tell me 30FPS, which I already know is for video, your answer will be voted down and will certainly NOT get 10 points.
To rephrase the question again: how many STILL IMAGES can the iPhone 5 take in 1 second?
iPhones have no user manual. No one at the Apple store would know because it is not on their website.

A. You are asking for still image "burst mode". On *still image capture devices* with this feature, that burst is generally around 3 still images to 5 still images per second. This can be a film camera (like a higher-end film SLR with a motor drive) or a digital still image device (like some point and shoot digital still image cameras, including bridge cameras and most sub-$1,500 dSLRs). The feature is typically used by (1) allowing burst mode in the camera's option menu or (2) pressing the shutter release button and holding it down while capturing stills for as long as the shutter release button is pressed.
Your reference to "30 fps" is irrelevant to still image capture. 30 fps is NTSC standard video capture frame rate. Still image capture has very little (or nothing) to do with video capture. The number of photos it can capture in 1 second is related to the time it takes for the person using the still image capture feature to press the shutter release button, wait for the still image to be written to memory and allow the camera to return to still image capture mode so the next image can be taken. This time can vary because of the different options available for the still image capture.
For example, using the iPhone's "HDR" feature results in two images being captured and processed/stored (if that option is selected). Capturing a panorama is another still image capture feature and is take a long time to pan across 240 degrees. The iPhone has no "burst" mode. HOWEVER, technically, if the digital still image capture is merely a single still, if the iPhone is in HDR mode, it captures 2 stills per second of the same image. One is "normal" and the other is the composite HDR image.
Clarification: The iPhone might not have a *printed* manual, but the soft-copy manual is a link in the iPhone's Safari bookmark section, "iPhone User Guide". Using the links at the top of the iPhone page at apple.com provides a relatively useful "manual", too

This "table of contents" is similar to many manuals usually included with cameras, camcorders, and other electronic devices.
Also, at apple.com in the Support area http://support.apple.com/manuals/
there is a link to the iPhone User Guide in the section labeled "Manuals". It is the same "manual" in the iPhone Safari book mark area referred to in the beginning of the "Clarification" section of this post.
Reading through these iPhone 5 manuals did not identify this feature as being available.
Again, at apple.com, in the support area, use of the Communities is a great way to ask questions about various Apple products and capabilities.
And last, the Apple store folks are not the only resource available. Any of the cellphone service providers which carry the iPhone 5 would be good resources, too.
Please keep in mind, that as good as the iPhone is, it is a Phone - hence its name. Anything else past being a phone is a convenience feature. If there is a specific need for a specific capability other than be a phone, then the best course of action is to get the device with a primary design capability to meet your feature requirement. In this case, a digital still image camera with a burst mode feature would be the prudent path forward for you. Another option would for you to try and write an app for the phone so that the phone can capture the still images according to your burst mode still image capture requirement.

Splice won't let me get videos from my camera roll PLEASE HELP?
Q. It says turn on Location Services even though they are already on. Help please
A. Hi Dexter, and welcome to Yahoo!Answers:
Since "Splice" is an iPhone app (not a camcorder), and you are new here, you should really ask this in either the "Cellphones & Plans" category or the "PDAs & Handhelds" Y!A category where tablet & phone apps are discussed.
Meanwhile, here's an Apple iOS6 support page regarding "Location Services" (with links to older iOS4 & 5 "Location Services" help pages): http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5467
And I didn't see any help links for the Splice app (other than an email address to write to), but here's their homepage: http://spliceapp.com/
hope this helps,
