Kodak DCS 700 - Manual (Page 203)

11-30
Long Time Exposure
At buLb setting, the shutter stays open as long as the Shutter Release button remains
depressed.
Use a tripod to avoid camera shake which may blur the image. Use of remote control
accessories, such as the NIKON Remote Cord MC-20, MC-30, or Modulite Remote
Control Set ML-3 is also recommended.
The duration of an exposure may depend on the condition of the batteries.
At low temperatures, batteries weaken and continuous shooting time shortens. Keep the
camera close to your body in cold conditions.
IMPORTANT:
Long exposures may add noise and produce a less desirable image. For quality
purposes, single image exposure of more than .5 second is not recommended.
You can use Custom Setting #19 to change Long Time Exposures
from 40 seconds to 30 minutes. Refer to “Custom Settings” on page
11-32.
You can set the Alert LED to blink during Long Time Exposure
using Custom Setting #11.
