Silent ShootingN

Below are instructions for setting the [6 Live View/Movie func. set.] menu’s [Silent shoot.].

Mode 1

The shooting operation noise is quieter than with normal shooting through the viewfinder. When you set the drive mode to <i>, you can shoot continuously at approx. 3 fps.

Mode 2

When you press the shutter button completely, only one shot will be taken. While you keep holding down the shutter button, the camera operation will be suspended. Then when you return to the shutter button’s halfway position, the camera operation will resume. The shooting noise is thereby minimized. Even if the current drive mode is set to continuous, only a single shot will be taken.

Disable

If you use a TS-E lens to make vertical shift movements or use an Extension Tube, be sure to set this to [Disable]. Setting it to [Mode 1] or [Mode 2] will result in incorrect or irregular exposures.

When you press the shutter button completely, the shutter will sound like it took two shots. However, only one shot will be taken.

If you use flash, the [Disable] operation will take effect even if you had set it to [Mode 1] or [Mode 2].

When using a non-Canon flash unit, set it to [Disable]. The flash will not fire if it is set to [Mode 1] or [Mode 2].

If [Mode 2] is set and you use a remote controller (p.102) to shoot, the operation will be the same as with [Mode 1].
