So I thought I would try a small 20min star trail with my *ist Ds, once the picture is taken the camera won't write it to the Sd and the "shots remaining" flashes on the lcd, nothing else is responsive.
I turned it off to conserve battery power but now the lcd displays the amount of shots remaining....
While typing this the screen on the back has just lit up and the card light came on so I assume that it has written to the memory card.
Is it usual for it to take a while to write long exposures to the card ?
I enjoy taking photos of lightning so if this is how long it'll take to write a bulb mode shot then I'm gonna miss many shots.
Any tips would be great ? This is my first dslr and the dedicated bulb mode was one of the things that attracted me to this camera, I'd be a little up set if this is the norm.
Thank you for any help, I love bulb mode but I'm not sure how it works in this camera, please any help...
