What do you use for taking bulb... Keeping your finger down on the button just dont work ;)

(is there a special remote for doing Bulb?)

Bulb is a great mode for storms...
sit there with shutter open waiting for the strikes!

bulb is where the shutter stays open while you press the release... once you take your finger off shutter closes

I have the ML-3 and with that you can set bulb and the remote function - press remote once to open shutter and then press again to close shutter

Cheers
