Continuous Shooting (Autoexposure Bracketing)
At settings of Continuous H and Continuous L ( 80), shooting will pause after each
bracketing cycle is complete. When Single is selected, shutter-release button must be
pressed once for each shot in bracketing cycle.
Auto Flash and Auto ISO (Autoexposure Bracketing)
In auto fl ash mode ( 34), the fl ash setting for the fi rst shot in each bracketing cycle
applies to the remaining pictures. If the fl ash fi res on the fi rst shot, it will fi re for the
remaining shots; if the fl ash does not fi re on the fi rst shot, it will not fi re for the remain-
ing shots. If sensitivity (ISO equivalency) is set to AUTO (
46) in S, A, or M mode, the
sensitivity value for the fi rst shot in each bracketing cycle will also apply to the remain-
ing pictures (in P mode, sensitivity will vary with each shot).
Autoexposure Bracketing
When Auto bracketing is selected, exposure varies
with each shot; the number of shots and amount of
exposure compensation performed are selected from
the sub-menu shown at right. Values are added to
the exposure compensation value selected with the
button ( 39). Bracketing is performed by vary-
ing shutter speed (exposure mode A and M), aperture
(exposure mode S), or shutter speed and aperture (ex-
posure mode P).
