H Auto Bracketing
Auto bracketing is used to vary exposure by a selected amount over a series of
pictures, “bracketing” the exposure value selected by the camera or with exposure
compensation. Use in situations in which it is difficult to guess the correct
exposure.
At settings other than
Off, the icon for the current setting is displayed in the
monitor during shooting (
A 6).
