BULB SETTING

When long time exposures are required (for shooting night scenes or very

dark subjects) the use of the “Bulb” setting is recommended. Please use a

tripod, when taking pictures with this setting.

Set the D-dial on the “Drive Area” (P.1 3 ).

Set the Mode dial to the “

” position.

Rotate the S-dial ( ) until is

displayed in the viewfinder display.

Rotate the A-dial ( ) to select the desired

aperture value.

Depress the shutter button fully to take the

picture.

CAUTION !!

• It is not possible to use Bulb photography for more than 30 seconds. The

shutter will automatically close about 30 seconds after the shutter button was

pressed.

• It is not possible to use the self-timer and Bulb photograhy at the same time.

If you set the D-dial to the self-timer with setting Bulb, the shutter will be

released with 1/180 second. (1/200 second will be displayed in the image

information.)

z It is possible to extend the Bulb time up to 120 seconds by setting the camera

to Extended Mode.

Please set from [

Camera Settings] (P.2 8 ) → [Extended Mode] and select

[On].

CAUTION!!

• When using the extended Buld time, the image quality may be lowered due to

increased noise.
