Select a shutter speed of T (time) or B (bulb) for long time-exposures.
Use of a tripod is recommended to prevent the camera from moving during the exposure.
To reduce "noise" (mottling) in long time-exposures, select ON for IMAGE QUALITY SETTING > LONG EXPOSURE NR. Note that this may increase the time needed to record images after shooting.
Rotate the shutter speed dial to T.
Rotate the rear command dial to choose a shutter speed.
Press the shutter button all the way down to take a picture at the selected shutter speed.
A count-down timer will be displayed while the exposure is in progress.
Rotate the shutter speed dial to B.
Press the shutter button all the way down.
The shutter will remain open for up to 60 minutes while the shutter button is pressed; the display shows the time elapsed since the exposure started.
Selecting an aperture of A fixes shutter speed at 30 s.
An optional RR-90 remote release can be used for long time-exposures.
See the manual provided with the RR-90 for more information.
