Since bulb exposures produce more noise than usual, the image may look a
little grainy.

When [
A
4: Long exp. noise reduction ] is set to [ Auto ] or [ Enable ], noise
generated by the long exposure can be reduced (p.157).

For bulb exposures, using a tripod is recommended.

You can also use a Remote Controller (sold separately, p.295) for bulb
exposures. When you press the Remote Controller’s transmit button, the bulb
exposure will start immediately or 2 sec. later. Press the button again to stop
the bulb exposure.
