Choose the shutter type. Choose the electronic shutter to mute the shutter sound.

[MECHANICAL SHUTTER]
Take pictures with the mechanical shutter.
[ELECTRONIC SHUTTER]
Take pictures with the electronic shutter.
[MECHANICAL + ELECTRONIC]
The camera chooses the shutter type according to shooting conditions.

If [ELECTRONIC SHUTTER] or [MECHANICAL + ELECTRONIC] is selected, shutter speeds faster than 1/4,000 s can be chosen by rotating the shutter speed dial to 4000 and then rotating the front command dial.

Regardless of the option selected, the mechanical shutter is used for motion panoramas. When the electronic shutter is used, shutter speed and sensitivity are restricted to values of 1/32,000—1 s and ISO 6400—200 respectively, and long exposure noise reduction has no effect. In burst mode, focus and exposure are fixed at the values for the first shot in each burst.

Distortion may be visible in shots of moving subjects with electronic shutter, while banding and fog may occur in shots taken under fluorescent lights or other flickering or erratic illumination. When taking pictures with the shutter muted, respect your subjects' image rights and right to privacy.
