The nature of CCD image sensors is such that noise in the recorded image increases at long shutter speeds. This camera, however, applies special processing to images shot at shutter speeds slower than 1.3 seconds to eliminate the noise, thereby producing high-quality images. A certain amount of processing time, however, may be required before the next image can be shot.

Use the LCD monitor to confirm that the image was recorded at the desired brightness.

Please note that camera shake becomes a factor at low shutter speeds. Set IS mode to a setting other than [Off] , or shoot with the camera attached to a tripod.
