When bulb is set, the shutter stays open while you hold down the
shutter button completely, and closes when you let go of the shutter
button. This is called bulb exposure. Use bulb exposures for night
scenes, fireworks, the heavens, and other subjects requiring long
exposures.

Since bulb exposures produce more noise than usual, the image might
look a little grainy.
When [8C.Fn II -1: Long exp. noise reduction] is set to [1: Auto] or
[2: On], noise generated by the bulb exposure can be reduced (p.208).
For bulb exposures, using the Remote Switch RS-80N3 or Timer Remote
Controller TC-80N3 (both sold separately) is recommended.
You can also use a remote controller (sold separately, p.110) for bulb
exposures. When you press the remote controller’s transmit button, the
bulb exposure will start immediately or 2 sec. later. Press the button
again to stop the bulb exposure.
