[QUOTE="Samsonite, post: 133252, member: 13264"] I've been reading up on star trails and long exposures and night / low light photography, several different sources say that its not good to keep one long exposure in bulb mode coz it overheats the camera sensor and this can damage it / cause extra noise. Has anyone heard about these issues or provide any additional information about this? Can it really cause damage to the sensor? How long is considered long enough for the sensor to heat up? Is it a matter of minutes like say 5 minutes? Or much longer say 30 minutes to an hour? Much appreciated! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk! [/QUOTE]
