q Tapping the Monitor to Release the Shutter (Touch Shutter)
Tap the desired subject to take a picture.
• Do not use force when tapping the monitor as this
may cause slight movement of the camera,
resulting in blurred pictures.
• When digital zoom is in effect, the camera focuses
on the subject in the center of the frame.
• The shutter-release button can also be used when
the touch shutter option is selected.
• If X is displayed when the monitor is tapped, the
shutter cannot be released. Tap an area within X
or a border displayed when the camera detects a
face.
B Notes on Touch Shutter
• When taking pictures with Continuous H, Continuous L, or BSS in Continuous setting (E 57)
enabled, or in Sports or Museum scene mode (A 40), use the shutter-release button to take
pictures. Only one picture can be taken at a time using the touch shutter function.
• Prevent shooting with accidental tapping of the monitor by changing the touch shooting setting
to Touch AF/AE (E 54) (except in some scene modes). At this setting, the shutter is not released
when the monitor is tapped. When recording movies, the touch shooting setting is used to enable
or disable the touch shutter.
• When shooting a subject that is not suitable for autofocus, the camera may not be able to focus
properly on the subject (A 29).
• When a subject displayed in the monitor is tapped with the self-timer (A 56) enabled, the
camera locks focus and releases the shutter after ten or two seconds.
• There are functions with which this setting cannot be enabled. See “Features That Cannot Be
Applied Simultaneously” (A 64) for more information.
C Touch Shooting Setting
The touch shooting setting applied in A (auto) mode is stored in the camera’s memory even after
the camera is turned off.
