k_ Notes About Touch Shutter
• When taking pictures with Continuous or BSS in Continuous setting (_'_43) enabled, or in
Sports or Museum scene mode (_41), 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 I_1 (auto) mode and some scene
modes by changing the touch shooting setting to Touch AF/AE (_'_40). 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 ([]_31).
• When a subject displayed in the monitor is tapped with the selfltimer (_57) enabled, the camera
locks focus and releases the shutter after ten or two seconds.
• There are functions with which this setting cannot be enabled ([_]66),
