 Are you sure about this? I've got a few of the classic
darkness-with-streaks shots where I pressed the shutter pointing at
something gloomy, assumed it was done exposing and moved on, only to have
the shutter _really_ close as soon as the camera saw some light. Could well
be that it was going to close at that point anyway and I was just unlucky
with the timing, though.
