This mode makes a three-image bracket of a scene.
Bracketing is a method of taking a series of images of
a static subject in which each image has a slight
variation in exposure. The bracketing mode is set in
section 1 of the recording menus.
Immediately after selecting the bracketing option on
the menu, a selection screen is displayed to select the
bracketing increment.
Press the left/right keys of the controller to select the
bracketing increment. Press the central button of the
controller to set the value. To change the increment,
select the bracketing drive mode again with the menu.
