Varying Settings Automatically: Auto Bracketing

At times, you may find it difficult to select appropri-
ate exposure compensation and white balance set-
tings, and yet not have time to check the results and
adjust settings after each shot. Auto Bracketing can
be used to vary these settings automatically over a
series of shots, “bracketing” a selected exposure com-
pensation or white balance setting.

Notes on Autoexposure Bracketing

• Autoexposure bracketing restarts from positive EV values when changes

are made to any exposure setting (exposure mode, exposure compensa-
tion, shutter speed, aperture, sensitivity, flash mode, and Variable Power).

• If the shutter-release button is held down at settings of Continuous Low

or Continuous High (

104), shooting will pause after completing each

bracketing cycle. At Continuous High, only three shots will be taken.

• Bracketing is automatically cancelled when the camera is turned off, or set

to User Set A.
