Talk:Bulb (photography)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
While the 'T' setting seems common on cameras that provide shutter priority I'm not so sure about the 'B' setting - can anyone confirm/deny this?--Hooperbloob 01:50, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
- I don't know, but I have one DSLR; it has Bulb and no T setting (Sigma SD10). Most old cameras that I have had over the years had both B and T. Dicklyon 02:21, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
I reverted my possibly mistaken historical interpretation, after finding two books supporting the other (pneumatic bulb) interpretation. Apparently the flash bulb was invented in 1929, and the B setting was common on cameras long before that. Dicklyon 18:14, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Examples?
It would be useful to have links to photos demonstrating the technique. Lee M 01:03, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
