Bracketing in continuous mode < Extra Photo Operations < Main Menu

Bracketing is the practice of making several exposures of a scene, with each exposure differing from the next by predetermined steps in exposure or focus settings. Bracketing is used to easily capture a range of exposures so that the best exposure can be selected at a later time. Bracketing is also used to create a series of exposures which will be combined using methods such as HDR processing.

The bracketing features are enabled when the camera drive mode is set to continuous, and custom timer with some models.

Usage Tip: If you wish to fire off individual frames and still have bracketing for each one, after the first shot lightly let-up on the

shutter button to a half- press position. The next full-press will give you another bracketed shot. This process may be repeated

for as many bracketing steps as you need. Giving you finer

control over the number of bracketed exposures you may require.

TV bracketing value [Off, 1/3 – 4 Ev]

Set this value to bracket via exposure time. A value of 1 will double or halve the exposure time for the following exposures.

AV bracketing value [Off, 1/3 – 4 Ev]

Set this value to bracket via aperture. A value of 1 will open or close the aperture by 1 stop for the following exposures.

Subj. Dist. Bracket Value

[0 – 100]

Set this value to enable focus bracketing. This feature is only

enabled during manual focus mode. This feature allows you to specify the manual focus distance in millimeters. This value is multiplied by the Value factor below to arrive at the final value.

Value factor (mm) [Off, 1, 10, 100, 1000]

Used as a multiplier for Distance bracketing value.
