3. Exposure Control Modes
About [T] (Time)
∫
When you set the shutter speed to [T] (Time), the shutter stays open when the shutter
button is pressed fully (up to approximately 29 minutes).
The shutter will close when the shutter button is pressed again.
Use this function when you want to keep the shutter open for a long time to take pictures of
fireworks, a night scene etc.
• It can only be used with Manual Exposure Mode.
• When the shutter speed is set to [T] (Time), we recommend using a tripod and
releasing the shutter remotely by connecting the camera to a smartphone via Wi-Fi
connection to prevent camera shake. [B] (Bulb) is also available when connected via
Bluetooth. (>234, 236)
• When you take pictures with the shutter speed set to [T] (Time), the pictures may have
higher noise levels. If you want to suppress noise, we recommend setting [Long Shtr
NR] to [ON] in the [Rec] menu. (>174)
