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 have more noise than usual, the image may look
rough or 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.156)
For bulb exposures, using Remote Switch RS-80N3 or Timer Remote
Controller TC-80N3 (both sold separately) is recommended.
