NOTE:
As the camera is electronically
controlled even during exposures, it
is recommended to replace batteries
before bulb exposure.
NOTE:
Using “tIME” (Time) setting, the
shutter will open and close according
to the number of times you press it.
“tIME” (Time) photography is
electronically controlled so it is
possible that the batteries will drain
quickly. In the case, please replace the
batteries with new ones.
