When shutter speeds of 1.3 seconds or slower are used, images are 
processed to reduce noise after being taken. A certain amount of 
processing time may be needed before you can take the next shot.

You should set [IS Mode] to [Off] when lowering the shutter speed and 
shooting with a tripod (p. 182).

When shutter speeds of 1.3 seconds or slower are used, the ISO speed 
is fixed to

If the aperture value appears in orange when the shutter button is pressed 
halfway, the scene has exceeded the correct exposure limits. Adjust the shutter 
speed until the aperture value appears in white (Safety shift can also be used 
(p. 119)).

You can also set the camera so that turning the 

7 dial changes the shutter
