These cameras have T(ime) instead of B(ulb). This means that a long
exposure starts when you press the shutter release and finishes the
next time you press the shutter release. T(ime) may also be used in
conjuction with the self timer or the wireless remote ML-L3.

No problem with non-D or non-G lenses. 3D-matrix reverts to matrix.
