Using the electronic shutter
Using the electronic shutter lets you perform various kinds of shooting
that are difficult to achieve using the mechanical shutter, such as shooting
without sounds or shaking, shooting with a super-fast shutter, and
blackout-free shooting*.
* During blackout-free shooting, the screen does not black out or drop frames
and you can keep looking at the subject through the viewfinder or monitor
while shooting images.
