a: Manual Exposure110To obtain a correct flash exposure, the flash output will be setautomatically (autoflash exposure) to match the manually-set aperture.The shutter speed can be set from 1/200 sec. to 30 sec or bulb.A bulb exposure keeps the shutter openfor as long as you hold down the shutterbutton. It can be used to shoot fireworksand other subjects requiring longexposures.In step 3 on the preceding page, turn the<6> dial to the left to set <BULB>.The elapsed exposure time will bedisplayed on the LCD monitor.D Using the Built-in FlashBULB: Bulb ExposuresElapsed exposure timeDuring the bulb exposure, do not point the camera toward an intenselight source, such as the sun on a sunny day or an intense artificial lightsource. Doing so may damage the image sensor or the camera’s internalcomponents.Since bulb exposures produce more noise than usual, the image maylook slightly grainy.You can reduce the noise due to long exposures by setting [4: Long exp.noise reduction] under [53: Custom Functions (C.Fn)] to [1: Auto] or[2: On] (p.260).If ISO Auto is set for a bulb exposure, the ISO speed will be fixed at ISO800 (p.90).For bulb exposures, using a tripod and a remote switch (sold separately,p.269) is recommended.COPY
