Does the Canon EOS R6 have “Bulb Mode”? If so I can’t seem to figure out how to find it and set it. Thanks.

See the capital B in the mode selector?

Same spot it always was in the dSLR era. Do you want instructions on how to set it?

Also, there should be a menu to set up the bulb mode too. That way you shouldn't have to use a remote shutter that connects to the camera. You can set it up too I believe 99 hours max.

If you want to pre-program a time, yes. But if you use it for fireworks, for example, you still want some sort of remote, since then you don't know the exposure time in advance.
Does the R6 support the BR-E1 remote? I have it for the R3, and it's quite handy.
