The nature of CCDs 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
of 1.3 seconds or slower 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.
