Here's what I would love Nikon to finally do: drop BULB and allow for any shutter speed length without a third-party controller. I'm a simple man.
Nope, I still want Bulb.
When I do some of my long exposures, like aerial fireworks, I do not know how long I want any particular shot to be. And shot to shot, they are NOT the same duration. So I cannot specify the shutter time in advance.
Same thing I do for fireworks.Here's what I would love Nikon to finally do: drop BULB and allow for any shutter speed length without a third-party controller. I'm a simple man.

Eh, allow for both then.
Do you really hold that shutter open the whole time? Don’t you get camera shake?

Since it's dark it's essentially light painting on the sensor. You open when it's shot off the ground if you want a tail, hold it open until the explosion just starts to fade ... Which is an unknown totally dependent upon the firework and when you want to start (a tail or just the explosion itself).
I use the corded release all the time for just the button. Push and hold in for as long as necessary. Let go and it stops. I have other remotes and Wifi remote but the old corded one just works better and simplier.
