Basic Shooting Functions
Basic Photography and Playback: G (Easy Auto) Mode
B Notes on Touch Shutter
• When taking pictures with Continuous or BSS in Continuous setting (A58) enabled, or in
Sports or Museum scene mode (A61), 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 in G (easy auto) mode, A (auto) mode,
and some scene modes by changing the touch shooting setting to Touch AF/AE (A 44). At this
setting, the shutter is not released when the monitor is tapped.
• When shooting subjects with which autofocus may not perform as expected, the subject may not
be in focus (A 29).
• When a subject displayed in the monitor is tapped with the self-timer (A36) 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 “Camera Settings That cannot
be Applied Simultaneously” (A76) for more information.
