See note at the beginning of this section regarding the difference ­between Single and Continuous drive settings. In both cases, the bracketing function is automatically reset for a new sequence.

  2  Bracketing

The bracketing facility provides an automatic series of captures; one at the standard

exposure­ setting (Manual or Auto) and the others with pre-determined deviations in EV from the standard exposure. This is particularly useful for images containing a very wide tonal range, for example.

Firstly you make an assessment concerning the number of extra frames required, the order in which they should be taken, and by how much the EV deviation there should be and the setting made accordingly. The first metered exposure (Manual or Auto) is the EV that determines the calculations for the bracketing sequence.

Note the difference in operation between Single and Continuous drive settings:

•  In Single you must press the shutter release button separately for every separate ­capture until the sequence is finished.

•  In Continuous you can either maintain the pressure on the button to take all frames without stopping or you can release the pressure on the button and press again to ­continue to the end of the sequence without losing any frames within the set sequence.
