Auto Exposure Bracketing

Standard Decreased Increased exposure exposure exposure

Take the pictures.

3 s The AEB sequence will be standard exposure, decreased exposure, and increased exposure.

s The viewfinder’s exposure level indicator will indicate the respective bracketing amount as each shot is taken.

•In the continuous shooting mode, holding down the shutter button will take all three bracketed shots continuously. The shooting will then stop automati- cally.

•When AEB is used with the self-timer, the three bracketed shots will be taken in succession after the 2- or 10-second self-timer delay.

•The following shooting modes cannot be set together: white balance bracketing, flash photography, bulb exposures, and AEB with a changing shutter speed, aperture, or ISO speed.

•If C.Fn-12-1 is set for mirror lockup and AEB is set, only one bracketed shot will be taken at a time even in the continuous shooting mode.

•The AEB range possible by changing the shutter speed is 30 sec. to 1/8000 sec. By changing the aperture, the AEB range ranges from the lens’ maximum aperture (lowest f/number) to the lens’ minimum aperture (highest f/number).

•The AEB range possible by changing the ISO speed is ISO 100 to 1250. If you set the AEB outside of this range, you can still take the picture, but the AEB amount will not go beyond the ISO 100-1250 range.

•If you use C.Fn-06-2 to set the exposure setting to 1/2-stop increments, you will not be able to set AEB with the ISO speed.

•If you set the drive mode to single-frame shooting, press the shutter button once for each AEB shot.

•After setting the AEB amount, you can also set exposure compensation to obtain decreased exposed or increased exposed bracketing. If the combined AEB amount and exposure compensation amount exceeds the display limits of the exposure level scale, it will look like as shown below. However, the AEB shots will still be taken according to the AEB and exposure compensation amounts you set.

•During AEB shooting with a changing shutter speed or aperture, the <> icon on the top LCD panel and the < > indicator in the viewfinder will blink to indicate that AEB shooting is in effect.

•During AEB shooting with a changing ISO speed, the < > icon on the top LCD panel and the < > < > indicators in the viewfinder will blink to indicate that AEB shooting is in effect.
