76 Shooting Controls
Long Time-Exposures (Mode M )
Select the following shutter speeds for
long time-exposures of moving lights,
the stars, night scenery, or fireworks.
• Bulb : The shutter remains open while
the shutter-release button is held
down.
• Time : The exposure starts when the
shutter-release button is pressed and
ends when the button is pressed a
second time.
To prevent blur, mount the camera on a tripod or use an optional
wireless remote controller (
Time only) or remote cord. Nikon also
recommends using a fully-charged battery or an optional AC
adapter and power connector to prevent loss of power while the
shutter is open. Note that noise (bright spots, randomly-spaced
bright pixels, or fog) may be present in long exposures. Bright
spots and fog can be reduced by choosing
On for Long
exposure NR in the photo shooting menu.
