To perform Auto Bracketing or White Balance Bracketing in Continuous or VGA Sequence mode (p. 99), hold down the Shutter release button fully. A selected number of consecutive shots are taken (up to three shots with FULL, 3 : 2 and Fine mode), after which the sequence stops automatically.

The Exposure Compensation indication flashes on the Control panel and along with the compensated EV value for the next shot are displayed on the Monitor when the bracketing is set.

— WB Bracketing —

White balance is bracketed when you press the Shutter release button fully, giving three shots made up of one shot with the selected white balance, one reddish image and one bluish image.

When you select White Balance Bracketing, the (White Balance Bracketing indication) appears on the Monitor.

Notes: Auto Bracketing and White Balance Bracketing

Bracketing cannot be set in Multi-shot 16, Ultra HS, Movie (p. 99), Best Shot Selector (p. 102), AE Lock (p. 109) or Noise Reduction mode.

White balance bracketing cannot be set in Continuous mode other than Single (p. 99), Best Shot Selector mode, AE Lock mode or Noise Reduction mode .

NOISE REDUCTION

When the camera is set for long time exposures, noise in the form randomly spaced bright-colored pixels will appear. The longer the exposure, the more this effect is apparent. The Noise Reduction setting can be used to minimize this effect.

On

The effect of noise on the recorded image is minimized.

 

 

Off

Noise reduction is canceled and normal exposure control is used.

Note: Time taken to save an image to the CF memory card

When the Noise Reduction function is on, the time taken to save a picture to the CF memory card is approximately doubled.
