Since bulb exposures will have more noise than usual, the image will look
grainy.
¡
Bulb exposures may result in grainy images due to picture noise. You can reduce
noise by setting C.Fn-2 [Long exposure noise reduction] to [1: On] (p.148).
¡
For bulb exposures, using Remote Switch RS-60E3 (optional) is recommended.
¡
Remote Controller RC-1/RC-5 (optional) can also be used for bulb
exposures. When you press the transmit button, the exposure will start 2
sec. later. To stop the exposure, press the button again.
