The maximum exposure time of 60 minutes gives a hint.
I like the idea of ditching Bulb mode and allow exposure times to be set directly longer than 30 seconds. In case one wants to stop a long exposure, it can always be done by turning off the camera and the file will be saved. On my 5DSR the buit-in Bulb timer saves the day, but setting all shutter speeds directly would be even simpler.
I prefer to keep Bulb mode. I am old school and I still use a cable release and will often shoot varying exposure times such as when I am shooting fireworks and rapidly changing lighting such as animated christmas light displays. These are times that my exposure lengths will vary and the last thing I want to do is fidgit with turning the camera on and off to end my exposure. Not to mention I would need to touch the camera and introduce shake from me touching it.
Like yourself I enjoy having the built in bulb timer on my 5DsR and I use it lots but it doesn\'t cut it for me when I am trying to capture shots with quick varying shutter speeds.
Good points. Who knows, maybe this camera enters bulb mode if you dial the exposure times past maximum, like some other cameras that don\'t have a \'B\' on the mode dial.
