Tips and Tricks Nr. 2 - How can I take some really quiet shots (also without any light) with the X100T?

So, the first and easiest thing to do is to activate the SILENT MODE. 
The disadvantages -for others advantages- while using this mode are: 

a) FLASH MODE doesn't work, 
b) AF ILLUMINATOR (this extra light that helps the camera to focus) also doesn't work, 
c) the MECHANICAL SHUTTER remains activated. 

Another way to be as quiet as possible is to do the following things:

1) a) go to SET-UP  2
    b) go to SOUND SET-UP
    c) turn the OPERATION VOL. and the SHUTTER VOLUME off. 

2) a) go to SHOOTING MENU 5
    b) go to SHUTTER TYPE
    c) choose the ELECTRONIC SHUTTER 
[While using the ELECTRONIC SHUTTER, you have to keep in mind that it is not possible to use the FLASH MODE and that while taking a PANORAMA photo the MECHANICAL SHUTTER is being used]. 

3) use the MANUAL FOCUS

In order to work without any light at all, here are my recommendations:

1) a) go to SHOOTING MENU 1
    b) go to AF ILLUMINATOR and turn it off

2) a) go to SHOOTING MENU 5
    b) go to FLASH MODE
    c) choose SUPPRESSED FLASH.

The only thing that I could't find out how to turn off (and I don't really know if it is really possible) is the backlight above the MENU/OK button. I suppose that the only way to take pictures without this light is to cover it with something :)

So, I hope you found my tips useful. Check the next post about how to reduce the battery consumption of the X100T!
