Good evening everybody.
I'm discovering ML so please be patient with me  ???
Is it possible to get one or many flashes while in the bulb mode ?
An example : I would like to light up the foreground of a night scene with the internal flash of my 7d.
Regards
Thierry

Why not trigger it manually with Speedlight? Wouldn't matter in Bulb.

Or use a flash light.

Maybe I did not explain myself correctly.
I would like the internal flash of my 7d to send one or several flash lights while the 7d is in the bulb mode.
I have no other flash than the internal one of the 7d.

On this picture, I would have liked to light up the pine trees in the foreground.

Do a search on light painting. While your request may be possible most people use flashlights for a more controlled use of what you're looking to do.
