• If you use a Remote Commander that is equipped with a shutter button 
lock function (sold separately), you can leave the shutter open using the 
Remote Commander.
Notes
• When using a tripod, turn off the SteadyShot function (page 84).
• The longer the exposure time, the more conspicuous the noise on the image.
• After shooting, noise reduction (Long Exposure NR) will be done for the same 
amount of time that the shutter was open. You cannot do any further shooting during 
the reduction.
• When the Smile Shutter or Auto HDR function is activated, or when [Picture Effect] 
is set to [HDR Painting] or [Rich-tone Mono.], you cannot set the shutter speed to 
[BULB].
• If the Smile Shutter, Auto HDR function, or the [HDR Painting] or [Rich-tone 
Mono.] setting of [Picture Effect] is used with the shutter speed set to [BULB], the 
shutter speed is temporarily set to 30 seconds.
• It is recommended that you start BULB shooting after the temperature of the camera 
drops to prevent the quality of the image from deteriorating.
