have no idea about this particular camera - i used to have an olympus c-3000 and was very happy with it. i don't know if you can manually set exposures that long, but it does have aperture + shutter priority and manual shooting modes. unfortunately, it uses the old smartmedia memory card which has been discontinued in newer cameras. it's a pretty good camera (in my opinion, others might beg to differ) - you can get one used on eBay with some of the basic accessories/stuff for about $150 i think.. although eBay can be sketchy at times, and i don't know how you feel about used products. in the end, it might be wiser to go with something more current/still supported if you can afford it, although it does look like user reviews on dpreview.com of this camera are fairly solid.
