Long
Time-Exposures
At
a shutter speed
of
au
l h,
the
shutter will
remain open while
the
shutter-release
button
is
held
down.
Use
for long time-exposure
photographs
of
moving
lights,
the
stars,
night
scenery, or fireworks. Nikon recommends
using a fully-charged
EN-EL3e
battery
or
an
optional
EH-Sa
or
EH-S
AC
adapter
to
prevent
loss
of
power while
the
shutter
is
open. Note
that
noise and color
distortion
may be present
in long exposures; before shooting, choose [On] for
the
[Long
expo
NR]
option
in
the
shooting
menu
(pg. 262).
