76 Shooting Controls
Long Time-Exposures (Mode M)
Select the following shutter speeds for
long time-exposures of moving lights,
the stars, night scenery, or fireworks.
• Bulb: The shutter remains open while
the shutter-release button is held
down.
• Time: The exposure starts when the
shutter-release button is pressed and
ends when the button is pressed a
second time.
To prevent blur, mount the camera on a tripod or use an optional
wireless remote controller (Time only) or remote cord. Nikon also
recommends using a fully-charged battery or an optional AC
adapter and 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. Bright
spots and fog can be reduced by choosing On for Long
exposure NR in the photo shooting menu.

Mount the camera on a tripod or place it on a stable, level
surface.
