So, are you saying, and you have tested this, that this method allows an exposure of longer than 60 seconds?
No sir I have not as I am sat on an Oil Rig in Nigeria right now, but I will be back home next week and I will give it a try and see what happens

In conjunction with the self-timer, a T function is also available: If is

set and the self-timer is activated by tapping the shutter release

button (see also p. 150), the shutter opens automatically after the

selected delay time. It then remains open until you press the shutter

release button a second time – you do not need to hold the button

down.

 

Unfortunately the shutter closed after 60 sec, less at high ISOs. No extension beyond 60 sec.

As mentioned in a previous post, 1/20 second is typically the slowest speed (without the filter attached) at which you can achieve a just less than 60 second exposure with a 10 stop filter at base ISO.

So in roughnecks terms that means at f16 with a 10 stop ND filter attached in normal sunlight the shutter will stay open for ~55 seconds

The Lee Seven5 filters work great with the M240. I used a big stopper and ND Grad .6 recently on a trip to Norway. The only annoying element is the 1minute maximum exposure time. Otherwise, this camera is amazingly flexible and very happy with the Landscapes shots.

 

Image are here http://www.richard-curtis.net (under Norway)..Images 10,12 and 13 are used with a filter, processed in Lightroom 5 using VSCO B&W presets and of course a few local adjustments.
