Bulb Exposures
A bulb exposure starts when you press the shutter button completely and
ends when you release the shutter button. Bulb exposures are useful when
long exposures are required for night scenes, fireworks, heavenly bodies,
etc. Remote Switch RS-60E3 (sold separately) is convenient since it frees
you from holding down the shutter button during bulb exposures.
