Disabling Operational Sounds and the Output of 
Light at once 
([Silent Mode])
This function is useful for recording images in a quiet environment, public facility, etc. or 
recording images of subjects such as babies or animals.
Select the menu. (P28)
Settings: [ON]/[OFF]
Operational sounds are muted, and the flash and the AF Assist lamp are forced off.
The following settings are fixed.

Sounds that are produced by the camera regardless of your operations, such as the lens 
aperture sound, cannot be muted.
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.
Taking Pictures with No Shutter Sound 
([Electronic Shutter])
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 minimised 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. (P28)
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.
