Thanks for the tip. I'll try that, but to be honest I do prefer Gianfranco's answer. It sounds much less expensive!!!
I'll let you know how I get on.

The shutter should stay open 'forever' and you'll have to end the exposure by taking the dial off Auto. If you find that some exposure fire at something that sounds like 1/60 or so... then I have much more information for you - not very cheery I must warn you. If you find that all exposures are 'infinite' (as they should be as there's no light) and you have to end them by taking the dial off Auto, then I have no idea and can't help I'm afraid.
