Does the shutter button on the remote control lock for long (bulb) exposures? Thanks!

On my D810 the with the camera in "Bulb" mode, push and hold the button and after a second or two you can release the button and the shutter will stay open. Tapping the button again will close the shutter to end the exposure

Not sure if this is an answer to your question? The button does not lock. But if you have a setting on your camera for long exposure such as night shots. It will trigger it just fine. My wife and I use it for night shots and low light shots all the time. We use it with a Nikon D200. We like it.

Yes, I use these on Nikon N90S. Set your camera to manual, drop your shutter speed down until your reach 'bulb' or in some cases '---' the lowest shutter speed. I did have a little bit of trouble on a Nikon D200, it just took some patience to get them to communicate. These are really reasonable triggers; great for more than one camera.

It doesn't support multi-minute exposures, the only one I had work (after 4 different replacements) supported up to 60 second exposure. no bulb.

It is absolutely compatible with bulb mode, but the RC-6 does require that its remote control infrared transmitter be able to see the infrared receiver on the front of the camera. That means being at least slightly ahead of the camera and to the right of the lens, which shouldn't interfere with any picture taking. Press the transmit button once and the shutter opens; press it a second time and the shutter closes, pretty as you please. Because we are talking bold mode, you, of course, determine the interval. One recommendation: make sure you use the mirror lockup function and a weighted tripod when using bulb mode. Even though you are using a remote control, you can get some noticeable shake, especially with telephoto lenses, and that means a less-than-perfectly-sharp image.

If you set the camera on "Bulb", you can press remote button and slide it forward to lock the shutter open and remain open until you disengage the lock on the remote.

The remote will work when you put your shutter speed on bulb mode, so you need to be in manual mode to do that. You aren't able to set that in auto so it will not work with that mode. All timer remotes (intervalometers) work that way.

No, It is only a remote shutter button, if you half press it, it will auto focus, but only if you are in AF mode. Otherwise, it will just actuate the shutter. It can be used as a bulb trigger as well

Yes. If you press the button and push it forward, it keeps the shutter open until you move it back again. It does not have a timer built into it though. You have to count or use a watch.

YES it does though it says the timer button .. you really have to hit the exposure button on the right side of the dial.I just made a video using the process today. I havent been able to take a shot while shooting video though...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nY69KSvKoEk&list;=UUEjpSE4pOhftupgVjQw1UGA

Does the ML-L3 wireless remote work in bulb mode, so I can keep the shutter open for as long as I press the release? Or do I need a wired remote to do that?

Yes, if your camera has settings for 2 or 10 second delay. Vital for group photos!The remote uses a CR2032 battery. Do not leave the remote plugged into the camera when not in use, as it will drain the battery, rapidly; disconnect it when not in use.

Yes, it works in bulb mode. You can either hold down the button for as long as you want or push the button then slide it forward to lock it in place then leave until you unlock it. :D!! Also, the cord is a very good length and the construction is quality. Great for astrophotography. It's worth the money in my opinion.

The bulb setting on the remote simulates holding the shutter button down. It can be used in multiple ways: 1. To take a long exposure, set the remote to bulb, and set your camera to bulb mode. When you press and hold the remote button, the shutter should open and remain open until you release the button. You determine the length of exposure. 2. To take a burst of shots, set your camera to burst mode, press and hold the button - the camera will continue taking shots until you release. 3. To take exposure bracketed shots, set the camera for exposure bracketing and for burst mode. Press and hold the shutter until the camera has taken all shots needed for bracketing and then release. Different cameras may handle bracketing in different ways.

Yes. If the camera shutter speed is NOT set to "bulb" or similar and you lock the remote shutter in the on position, it will perform continuous shooting. However depending on the length of your exposure, a better option might be to use the timers built in delay timer, as longer exposures take more processing time.

Yes, you will be able to set the exposure longer than 30sec when the camera is in bulb mode.

Actually David if your shooting with a SLR you should have a bulb setting on your camera. In this mode you control the length of your exposure. The remote has a lock feature that will allow you to take long exposures.

I shoot with a D7000 and if you place it in BULB mode, the tiumer on the remote will take over. There you can run a single, continuous 100-hour exposure if you wish. this is great for getting star trails as you can also set the number of shots and interval between them very quickly versus drilling down though the menu in the camera.

You can either manually hold shutter button or 'lock' it down. This is on the receiver on (attached to the camera), NOT with the wireless remote.

I assume you are referring to high speed sync. The answer is no, holding the button for an extended period will work to keep the shutter open in bulb mode, but that's about the extent of its usefulness (outside of continuous exposure mode). However, if you set your camera and strobe properly for High Speed Sync, it will work properly with just an instantaneous press of the release button.
