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 [

• 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 ].
