The bracketing function provides an automatic series of cap- tures; 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 con- taining a very wide tonal range, for example.

Firstly you make an assessment concerning the number of ex- tra 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 (Manu- al or Auto) is the EV that determines the calculations for the bracketing sequence.

Note the difference in operation between Single and Con- tinuous drive settings:

•  At the Single setting you must press the shutter release but- ton separately for every separate ­capture until the sequence is finished.

•  At the Continuous setting you can either maintain the pres- sure 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.
