Taking Pictures With No Shutter Sound ([Electronic Shutter]); Flash - Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH4 Owner's Manual

6. Recording Suited for the Subject and Scene
Taking Pictures with No Shutter Sound
([Electronic Shutter])
Applicable modes:
The shutter sound can be turned off for recording in a quiet environment. The mechanical
shutter is disabled, making it easier to take pictures with minimized blur.
We recommended making a trial recording in advance because distorted subjects and
horizontal stripes may be recorded depending on the recording conditions.
Select the menu.
> [Rec] > [Electronic Shutter]
MENU
Settings: [ON]/[OFF]
•
Flash is fixed to [Œ] (forced flash off).
•
Under fluorescent or LED lighting, etc., horizontal stripes may appear on recorded
pictures. In such cases, lowering the shutter speed may reduce the effect of the
horizontal stripes.
•
If a subject is moving, the subject may appear distorted on the picture taken.
•
If jitter occurs during recording, distorted subjects may be recorded. Use of a tripod is
recommended.
•
You can turn off the shutter sound at [E-Shutter Vol] in [Beep].
•
Be sure to pay special attention to the privacy, the likeness rights, etc. of the subject
when you use this function. Use at your own risk.
Not available in these cases:
•
[Electronic Shutter] will be fixed to [ON] when [Burst Rate] is set to [SH].
