Long exposure on Nikon D3300

[NoLogic]

Hi, I'm not able to use longer exposures than 30 seconds on my Nikon D3300.
Is this a limitation due to the fact that D3300 is a budget model?
Has anyone else been able to use longer exposures?

Still using verion 0.2.6, planning to upgrade to 0.2.8 when it is available.

I presume yes.
The bulb mode will only work if the command for it is available on the connected DSLR.

On my D3300 I am able to set the Bulb mode using the Camera Properties setting Exposure to Bulb.
And when I press the Capture button I get a dialog asking for the Bulb time, so far so good. But when I then press Capture nothing happens.

Yes you can set shutter speed to BULB but the camera will not perform the capture as it is not supported by camera.

Thanks for the clarification.

Does bulb mode work for Nikon D7000?
