The Shooting Menu (for A (Auto) Mode)

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
images.

• 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.

Notes About Touch Shutter

• When taking pictures with Continuous or BSS in Continuous setting (E43) enabled, or in

Sports or Museum scene mode (

A41), 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 A (auto) mode and some scene

modes by changing the touch shooting setting to Touch AF/AE (

E40). 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 (

A31).

• When a subject displayed in the monitor is tapped with the self-timer (A57) enabled, the camera

locks focus and releases the shutter after ten or two seconds.

• There are functions with which this setting cannot be enabled (A66).
