BRACKETING NOTES
Bracketing is a method of taking a series of images of a static subject in which each
image has a slight variation in exposure. Exposure and flash brackets can be made.
Select continuous-advance bracketing or single-frame advance bracketing with the drive-
mode dial (p. 56). Continuous-advance bracketing creates a successive series of images
automatically when the shutter-release button is pressed and held. The shutter-release
button must be pressed for each exposure when using single-frame advance bracketing.
The number of frames and the bracketing increment is displayed on the Ev scale on the
monitor. This can be changed in section 2 of the recording mode menu (p. 64, 70). The
bracketing order can also be set on the menu (p. 70).
To make a flash bracket, raise the camera flash; the ambient exposure is not bracketed.
The flash recharges between exposures. Exposure brackets are made when the flash is
down.
Compose the picture as described in the basic recording section (p. 28). As the bracket
is made, the index marks disappear from the Ev scale to show the remaining frames.
When making a continuous-advance bracket, if the shutter button is release before the
bracket is completed, the bracket resets. If using continuous AF or Auto AF with moving
subjects (p. 52), the camera focuses between each exposure.
