The

(Bulb)
setting of
the shutter speed dial
is

for night
photography
or

the shutter speed
dial to

the
appropriate
lens aperture and

the shutter
release button.
The exposure
will
be
made
and
the
shutter
will remain
open
for
as
long
as the shutter
release
button

To
prevent
camera
shake during
time
exposures,
fix the
camera to a
tripod
or
set
it
on a stable surface,
then
connect a
cable
release to the cable
release
socket
