Taking Pictures Using Tap Shooting Options

Avoid moving the camera when releasing the shutter. Camera
movement can result in blurred photographs.

The shutter-release button can be used to focus and take pictures even
when the

3 icon is displayed to show that touch shooting options are

active. Use the shutter-release button to take photographs in
continuous shooting mode (

0 5) and during movie recording. Touch

shooting options can be used only to take pictures one at a time in
continuous shooting mode and can not be used to take photographs
during movie recording.

While subject tracking is active and

7 (touch shutter off ) is selected,

you can focus on the current subject by tapping the monitor.

In self-timer mode (

0 5), focus locks on the selected subject when you

touch the monitor and the timer starts when you lift your finger from
the screen. At default settings, the shutter is released about 10 s after
the timer starts; the delay and number of shots can be changed using
Custom Setting c3 (Self-timer,

0 86). If the option selected for

Number of shots is greater than 1, the camera will automatically take
pictures one after the other until the selected number of shots is
recorded.
