[B] (Bulb)
(Approximately up to 120 seconds)
If you set the shutter speed to [B], the shutter stays open while the shutter button is
pressed fully.
The shutter closes if you release the shutter button.
Use this function when you want to keep the shutter open for an extended period, for
example, to record pictures of fireworks or night scenes.
●
We recommend using a tripod or the shutter remote control (DMW-RS2: optional) when you
take pictures with the shutter speed set to [B].
●
When you take still pictures with the shutter speed set to B (Bulb), the pictures may have
higher noise levels. If you want to suppress noise, we recommend taking pictures by setting
[Long Shtr NR] to [ON] in the [Rec] menu.
●
This function is not available in the following cases:
• When recording using the flash (Only when [Flash Synchro] is set to [2ND])
