Shooting Long Exposures - Canon POWERSHOT 1000 HS User Manual

Shooting Long Exposures

You can set the shutter speed to a range between 1 and 15 seconds to shoot
long exposures. However, you should attach the camera to a tripod to prevent
the camera from moving and blurring the image.
• The brightness of the image may differ from the brightness of the screen
in Step 3 when the shutter button was pressed halfway.
• When shutter speeds of 1.3 seconds or slower are used, images are
processed to eliminate noise after being taken. A certain amount of
processing time may be needed before you can take the next shot.
• You should set the [IS Mode] to [Off] when shooting with a tripod
(p. 150).
