BULB: Long (Bulb) Exposures
In this mode, the shutter stays open as long as you hold down the
shutter button completely, and closes when you let go of the shutter
button. This photographic technique is called “bulb exposure”. Use bulb
exposures for night scenes, reworks, the heavens, and other subjects
requiring long exposures.
1
Set the shooting mode to [BULB].
2
Set the desired aperture.
z
Turn the <
6
> dial to set it.
3
Take the picture.
z
The exposure will continue for as
long as you keep the shutter button
pressed completely.
g
The elapsed exposure time will be
displayed on the LCD panel.
o
Do not point the camera toward an intense light source, such as the sun
or an intense articial light source. Doing so may damage the image
sensor or the camera’s internal components.
o
Long bulb exposures produce more noise in the image than usual.
o
If ISO Auto is set, ISO 400 will be set (p.608).
o
When shooting bulb exposures with the self-timer instead of the bulb
timer, keep pressing the shutter button completely (for the self-timer time
and bulb exposure time).
