Exposure
The camera automatically shoots a number of pictures at different exposure values for each
frame. Even in conditions where correct exposure is difficult to obtain (such as a backlit
subject or a scene at dusk), you can pick the picture you prefer from a selected number of
frames with a variety of different exposure settings (exposure and compensation values). The
pictures are taken in the following order: Picture with optimum exposure, picture adjusted in –
direction, and picture adjusted in + direction.
Compensation value: 0.3, 0.7 or 1.0
The compensation value will change if the EV step is changed. g“EV STEP” (P. 96)
Number of frames: 3 or 5

Start shooting.
In single-frame shooting, the exposure changes every time the shutter button is pressed.
In sequential shooting, hold down the shutter button until the selected number of frames are
taken.
Releasing the shutter button stops auto bracketing shooting. When it stops, 0 blinks in
the viewfinder and on the control panel and 0 is displayed in green on the super
control panel.
