OTHER — Taking Time Exposures (bulb)
79
78
Set the shutter speed to bulb when you want to
take time exposures. When selected, the
shutter remains open as long as the shutter-
release button is held down.
1. Mount the camera on a tripod.
2. Set the camera to M-mode, then turn
the front control dial until
appears in the data panel.
4. Compose the scene and focus on
your subject.
If the scene is too dark for autofocus to
operate, slide the focus-mode switch to M
and focus the lens manually (p. 33).
5. Close the eyepiece shutter.
• The eyepiece shutter prevents light from entering
through the viewfinder and affecting the metered
exposure.
6. Press and hold the shutter-release
button to take the picture.
• The shutter remains open as long as the shutter-
release button is held down.
Attach a remote cord (p. 80) to reduce image blur.
3. Turn the rear control dial to select
the aperture.
