❚❚ Long Time-Exposures (M Mode Only)
Select the following shutter speeds for long time-
exposures of moving lights, the stars, night
scenery, or fireworks.
• Bulb (A): The shutter remains open while
the shutter-release button is held down.
To
prevent blur, use a tripod or an optional
MC-DC2 remote cord (0 298).
• Time (%): Requires an optional ML-L3 remote
control (0 298).
Start the exposure by pressing
the ML-L3 shutter-release button.
The shutter
remains open for thirty minutes or until the
button is pressed a second time.
1 Ready the camera.
Mount the camera on a tripod or place it on a stable, level surface.
To prevent
light entering via the viewfinder interfering with exposure, remove the rubber
eyecup and cover the viewfinder with the supplied DK-5 eyepiece cap (0 86).
To prevent loss of power before the exposure is complete, use a fully charged
EN-EL15 battery or an optional EH-5b AC adapter and EP-5B power connector.
Note that noise (bright spots, randomly-spaced bright pixels, or fog) may be
present in long exposures; before shooting, choose On for Long exposure NR
in the shooting menu (0 218).
