Re: bulb cannot work

Hi,

http://gphoto.org/doc/remote/

The howto was a bit wrong, but what works for me:

Dial the camera to "M" mode.

Then run:
	gphoto2 --set-config shutterspeed=bulb
	gphoto2 --set-config eosremoterelease=Immediate --wait-event=30s --set-config eosremoterelease="Release Full" --wait-event-and-download=2s 

for a 30 second bulb exposure.

Ciao, Marcus
