How to turn off the Electronic Shutter sound. - DMC-GH4

Applicable Modes

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 minimized blur. We recommended making a trial recording in advance because distorted subjects and horizontal stripes may be recorded depending on the recording conditions.   Press [Menu] → [REC] → [Electronic Shutter] → [On] / [Off]

• Flash is fixed to [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.
• If jitter occurs during recording, distorted subjects may be recorded. Use of a tripod is recommended.
• You can turn off the shutter sound at [E-Shutter Vol.] in [Beep].
• 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.

Not available in these cases:

• [Electronic Shutter] will be fixed to [ON] when [Burst Rate] is set to [SH].
• If you set [Silent Mode] to [ON], [Electronic Shutter] will be fixed to [ON].
