• When using the flash, press the shutter button frame by frame regardless of the setting.
• The image is shot in the order of 0 (correct), - (under), and + (over). The order can be changed in [Bracket
order] in the Recording menu (page 87).
• The base exposure is set at the first frame in the bracket. The base exposure moves if exposure
compensation is used.
• Normally, the focal point changes in every shooting. The focal point is fixed only in continuous bracket
shooting when AF mode is set to [Single-shot AF] or [Automatic AF] with an still subject.
