When the bracketing function is initially selected, the drive mode is automatically set to continuous advance. Compose the picture as described in the taking-a-picture section (p. 21). The focus and exposure are locked with the first frame.
Press and hold the shutter-release button all the way down to make the bracketing series; three consecutive frames are taken. If the shutter button is released before the last frame of the series is taken, the bracket series is reset.
Changing the drive mode (p. 50) to single- frame advance, self-timer, or remote control allows each frame to be taken each time the shutter-release button is pressed all the way down; the self-timer drive mode is reset after each exposure. The data panel indicates the next bracketing frame in the series.
To cancel the current bracketing series, turn the camera off. To cancel the bracketing function, press the function button and turn the control dial until “OFF” is displayed on the data panel.
Camera Notes
A button shortcut allows exposure bracketing to be used with specific subjects. Press and hold the exposure-compensation button while pressing and holding the shutter-release button for the duration of the automatic three- frame 0.5 Ev bracket.
