Bulb Exposures
'■J. HTItJ
When bulb is set, you can expose the film for as long as you press the
shutter button completely. Bulb exposures are useful when long exposures
are required for night scenes, fireworks, etc. In this case, Remote Switch
RS-60E3 (sold separately) is convenient since it frees you from holding
down the shutter button during bulb exposures.
