B: Bulb Exposures
When bulb is set, the shutter stays open while you hold down the shutter
button completely, and closes when you let go of the shutter button. This
is called bulb exposure. Use bulb exposures for night scenes, fireworks,
the heavens, and other subjects requiring long exposures.

[]] • Since bulb exposures produce more noise than usual, the image might
look rough
or grainy.
