Detailed Operation
Auto Exposure Bracketing allows you to shoot at selected
compensated EV values (maximum of ±3 EV) shifting from the
automatically set proper exposure (or selected exposure in Manual
exposure mode) for a selected number of shots (maximum of 7) each
time the shutter is released. Auto Exposure Bracketing can be
performed in any exposure mode.
1
While pressing the Auto Exposure Bracketing
BKT button, rotate the Main-Command Dial
to set the number of shots and Sub-
Command Dial to set compensated EV value.
• While the BKT button is pressed, check the
number of shots and compensated EV values in
the rear LCD panel.
• When the selected number of shots is a value
other than “0”, z appears in the top LCD
panel and viewfinder. Electronic analog exposure
display indicates the Bracketing status. (In Manual
exposure mode, the Bracketing status is displayed
only in the top LCD panel.) The compensated EV
value and Bracketing indicator are displayed in
the rear LCD panel.
• See pages 76-77 for the combinations of the
number of shots and compensated EV value.

Compose picture, focus and shoot.
Shutter speed and aperture in Programmed Auto, aperture in Shutter-
Priority Auto and shutter speed in Aperture-Priority Auto and Manual
exposure mode are shifted.
In any of the exposure modes, Flash Exposure Bracketing (in which the
TTL Auto Flash level of the lighted main subject is shifted) and Auto
Exposure Bracketing (in which the exposure of a background lighted by
ambient light is shifted) are performed simultaneously when a Speedlight
is used.
CSM e5: Bracketing can be set to perform only Auto Exposure Bracketing or
Flash Exposure Bracketing where both are normally performed simultaneously
(x 105).
CSM e6: In Manual exposure mode, shutter speed, aperture and flash output
level, or aperture and flash output level, or only flash output level can be set
to be shifted where normally shutter speed and flash output level are shifted
(x 106).
CSM e8: Auto Exposure Bracketing can be set to be turned on/off with the
Main-Command Dial, and the Sub-Command Dial can be used to select the
number of shots and compensated EV value (x 106).
