Auto Bracketing (continued)

PHOTOGRAPHY ADVANCED

AUTO— BRACKETING

3To take the first photograph in the series, compose the photograph, focus, and shoot. If the shutter-release button is held down with the mode dial set to C (continuous mode), shooting will end automatically once the number of shots specified in the bracketing program (two or three) has been taken. In single- frame and self-timer modes, one photograph is taken each time the shutter- release button is fully pressed. To cancel bracketing before all photographs in the series have been taken, press the BKT button and rotate the main command dial until BKT is no longer displayed in the control panel on top of the camera. The program selected at the time auto bracketing was cancelled will be restored the next time auto bracketing is used.

During shooting, the camera shows the modified values for shutter speed and aperture.

Bracketing can be combined with exposure compensation to produce compensation values greater than +2.0 or less than –2.0 while bracketing is in effect.

If the camera is turned off before all photographs in the sequence have been taken, bracketing will resume from the next shot in the sequence when the camera is turned on. If the memory card fills up before all photographs in the sequence have been taken, shooting can be resumed from the next shot in the sequence after images have been deleted or a new memory card inserted.

3—Bracketing Order ( pg. 162)

This setting can be used to change the bracketing order so that bracketing proceeds from underexposure to overexposure.
