AUTOMATIC BRACKETING
High contrast subjects that have both very bright and very dark areas
can result in very di erent e ects depending on the exposure.
The automatic bracketing function enables you to take a series of
three pictures with graduated exposure. You can then select the most
adequate picture for further use.
1.
Press up
EV+/-
on the direction pad (25) twice
The corresponding scale appears.
2.
Set the desired graduation by pressing left / right on the
direction pad or using the thumb wheel (23)/
Values from +3 to -3EV in
1
/
3
EV increments are available.
The set increments are displayed in red on the scale.
3.
Press the
MENU/SET
button (15)or the shutter button (8) to
save the setting
The bracketing symbol appears.
Notes:
• Depending on the exposure mode, the graduations are produced
by changing the shutter speed (
P/A/M) or the aperture (T).
• The sequence of the exposures is: correct exposure, underexpo-
sure, overexposure.
• Depending on the available shutter speed/aperture combination,
the working range of the automatic bracketing function may be
limited.
Pressing up
EV+/- on the direction pad also opens the menus for
exposure compensation and  ash exposure compensation. They
scroll through in an endless loop and can therefore be selected by
repeatedly pressing.
An automatic bracketing setting remains active until it is reset to
±0 (see step 2), i.e. after any number of pictures and even after
turning off the camera.
