Testing my camera

It was a rainy day and I thought it would be a good time to test my camera. I couldn’t find the manual and the electronic setting didn’t give me an option to set the ISO speed rating. I just simply placed the camera on the tripod and used the Shutter priority setting. I then took a set of 4 pictures at 8, 4, 2, 1 seconds, then retook them with whitening added.
I wish I could increase the f/# and the exposure time. Unfortunately, the maximum exposure time is only 8 seconds at f/2.8. Every time I tried to increase the f//#, I lost the Shutter priority mode. The other trouble with this Sony Mavica 95 is the need of an adaptor in order to record the picture into memory stick. It takes almost 30 seconds or more to record an image. That’s why I really need to find a good pass to see the outcome of the shot before moving up to a new camera that will give me longer exposure time.
