MnMCarta: with a huge smile saying how much he loves them!!! ( 5 years and 3201 days ago )

k5683: just kind of curious...what type of camera takes minutes or HOURS? ( 5 years and 3196 days ago )

jawshoewhah: In any Nikon or Canon pro-model camera, manual mode lets you extend the exposure time to well, just about as long as you want. In "bulb" setting on my Nikon D50, I'm able to expose my shot until I turn the camera off. ( 5 years and 3196 days ago )

k5683: thanks jawshoewhah. I didn't know that. ( 5 years and 3195 days ago )

kyricom: not just the Canikons... pretty much any decent DSLR can be set up that way ( 5 years and 3195 days ago )

MnMCarta: I tried BULB mode and it stops when I take my finger off the dang trigger. I wanted to do a star scene long exposure for like 30min but haven't really played with how to do that. Is that bad for the camera? ( 5 years and 3195 days ago )
