Long Time-Exposures

At a shutter speed of A, the shutter will remain open while the
shutter-release button is held down. Use for long time-exposure
photographs of moving lights, the stars, night scenery, or
fireworks. A tripod and optional remote cord (0 394) are
recommended to prevent blur.

Ready the camera.
Mount the camera on a tripod or place it on a stable, level
surface. If you are using an optional remote cord, attach it to
the camera.

Close the viewfinder eyepiece shutter to prevent light entering via
the viewfinder from appearing in the photograph or interfering
with exposure (0 114). Nikon recommends using a fully charged
EN-EL18 battery or an optional EH-6b AC adapter and EP-6 power
connector to prevent loss of power while the shutter is open. Note
that noise (bright spots, randomly-spaced bright pixels or fog) may
be present in long exposures; before shooting, choose On for the
Long exposure NR option in the shooting menu (0 302).
Shutter speed: 35 s; aperture: f/25
