[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 185897, member: 12496"] In fact doubles it, 30 seconds shutter become about 60 seconds processing. BTW, technically in real world, 30 seconds shutter time is always actually 32.0 seconds, required due to the stops being in the necessary sequence of 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32 seconds. The marked shutter numbers (all of them) are just smooth convenient approximations for humans to see, not exactly what the shutter uses. Going faster, all the actual shutters are the binary sequence, 1/32, 1/64, 1/128, 1/256, 1/512 second, etc. Easy to confirm that the 32 seconds is true, and the interval timer surely must know that, but I have never tested what its intervals actually do about it. One or the other 30 second numbers has to manipulated however. And 32 second intervals do work better. My worry is if that is pushing it too? [/QUOTE]
