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 (0 390) are recommended to prevent blur. Shutter speed: 35 s; aperture: f/25 1 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. A Long Time-Exposures Z Close the viewfinder eyepiece shutter to prevent light entering via the viewfinder from appearing in the photograph or interfering with exposure. Nikon recommends using a fully charged EN-EL15 battery or an optional EH-5b AC adapter and EP-5B 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 (0 277). 124
