Hi,

since ML 2.3 RC it seems there's no counter for the time that has elapsed when bulb timer has started on my EOS 550D

with the May release theres was the time counting up on the LV display, giving you an idea how many seconds of the exposure time has elapsed so far.

was there a problem with it or anything because I couldnt find anything according to this.

would be nice to have it back.

Thanks.

Press DISP. This is a feature "borrowed" from high-end cameras, so the display backlight doesn't leak light on your long exposures.

You can also count LED blinks.

It only happens with ML bulb exposures, for which you know the timing in advance.
