photographs.
Taking Photographs (Touch Shutter)
Touch the monitor to focus and lift your
finger to take the photograph.
Tap the icon shown at right to choose
the operation performed by tapping the
monitor in shooting mode. Choose
from the following options:
Option
3 (touch shutter on)
7 (touch shutter off)
Focus locks while your finger is on the monitor. During movie
recording, the touch shutter remains off (7) and you can
refocus at any time by touching your subject in the monitor; the
touch shutter options icon is not displayed.
Touch the monitor to position the focus point
and focus (autofocus only; the touch shutter
can not be used to focus when MF—manual
focus—is selected for focus mode as
described on page 164). The shutter is
released when you lift your finger from the
screen.
As above, except that lifting your finger from
the screen does not release the shutter.
