[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 513493, member: 12496"] Eduard, Marcel, and any others with a Fuji camera... I'd like to ask a simple favor. It's been a month since activity, I hope I'm not butting in. :) Nikon DSLR cameras actually do 32 seconds on their 30 second shutter speed setting. This causes common problems with the interval timer taking star trail pictures, because the interval has to be 33 seconds to work. We naturally assume 31 second intervals should work, but it won't, because the shutter is 32 seconds. This is reasonable and normal, the basic concept of each stop being 2x the light simply has to go: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32 seconds. Each one a 2x stop. I have been told (by a shaky source) that their Fuji camera certainly does not do that. Hard for me to believe, it would be a shame not to honor the concept of stops. I would like to ask that a few of you with Fuji to simply time their Fuji 30 second shutter once, like just with a wrist watch second hand. Is it 30 or 32? I'd really appreciate hearing some numbers for it (and model name). It's not about any interval timer, just a simple question, for 30 seconds, does Fuji actually do 30 or 32? Thanks very much.
