Bulb Exposures

When bulb is set, the shutter is open during the time you keep pressing the shutter button fully.

Bulb is useful when a long exposure is necessary for capturing night scenes, fireworks, the

night sky, etc.

•

Press and hold the shutter button down fully.

The LCD panel will show the elapsed exposure time

from 1 sec. to a maximum of 999 sec.

•

Exposure continues as long as you hold down the

shutter button.

Since bulb exposures will have more noise than usual, the image will look rough or

grainy.

With a fully-charged battery, a single bulb exposure can be as long as about 2.5 hours.

By connecting Remote Switch RS-80N3 or Timer Remote Controller TC-80N3 (both

optional) to the camera’s remote control terminal, you need not keep pressing the

shutter button with your finger during bulb exposures. (→p.175)
