∫About [B] (Bulb)

If you set the shutter speed to [B], the shutter stays open while the shutter button is pressed fully (up to about 4 minutes).

The shutter closes if you release the shutter button.

Use this when you want to keep the shutter open for a long time to take pictures of fireworks, a night scene etc.

•If you set the shutter speed to [B], [B] is displayed on the screen.

•When you take pictures with the shutter speed set to [B], use a sufficiently charged battery. (P21)

•We recommend using a tripod or the remote shutter (DMW-RSL1; optional) when you take pictures with the shutter speed set to [B]. Refer to P163 for information about the remote shutter.

•When you take pictures with the shutter speed set to [B], noise may become visible. To avoid picture noise, we recommend setting [LONG SHTR NR] in the [REC] mode menu to [ON] before taking pictures. (P119)

•The manual exposure assistance does not appear.

Note

•It will be a normal motion picture recording when recording a motion picture.
