To take the picture, press and hold the shutter-release button (3) for the duration of the exposure.
The monitors will be blank during the exposure. Releasing the shutter button will end the exposure.
The optional remote control RC-3 can be used to eliminate the risk
of camera shake. Set the drive mode to self-timer / remote control
in the basic section of the multi-function mode menu (p. 56). While
pointing the remote control toward the front of the camera, press
and release either button to begin the exposure; the delay button
begins the exposure after two seconds. Press either button again
to end it.
Bulb photographs can be taken in the manual-exposure mode.
Exposures up to fifteen seconds can be made. A tripod is recom-
mended for bulb exposures. The camera’s exposure system cannot
be used to calculate bulb exposures. The use of a separate light
meter is recommended.
