Long Time-Exposures (BULB)
When manual exposure mode is selected and
CONTINUOUS set to
Single
(
96), shutter speed
can be set to BULB for long time-exposures of up
to five minutes. With shutter speed selected in the monitor, rotate the com-
mand dial until the shutter-speed display shows BULB. At this setting, the
shutter will remain open while the shutter-release button is pressed. To pre-
vent blurring caused by camera shake, we recommend that you use a tripod
and a remote shutter release such as the MC-EU1 remote cord. We also
recommend that you turn
Noise Reduction
on (

(“noise”).
