Using the Bulb Shooting
Bulb shooting is available only when using a lens that has a lens shutter.
In Bulb shooting, the following functions are not available.
- Continuous Shooting - Exposure Bracketing
- EV Compensation - AE Lock
- Interval Shooting - HDR Capture
- Shake Reduction
Bulb shooting ends compulsorily once the exposure time exceeds 32
seconds.
Use a sturdy tripod to prevent camera shake during Bulb shooting.
The upper sensitivity limit for Bulb shooting is ISO 1600.
We recommend using the AC adapter kit (optional) when shooting with a long
exposure setting as the battery drain is high during Bulb shooting. (p.40)
