AThe Bracketing Progress Indicator

During AE bracketing, progress is shown by the bracketing indicator in the information display:

v: Camera ready to take first shot.

w: Camera ready to take second shot.

x: Camera ready to take third shot.

During ADL bracketing, the setting that will be used for the next shot is underlined in the information display.

ADisabling Bracketing

To disable bracketing and resume normal shooting, select OFF in Step 4 on the previous page. To cancel bracketing before all frames have been recorded, rotate the mode dial to a setting other than P, S, A, or M.

AExposure Bracketing

The camera modifies exposure by varying shutter speed and aperture (mode P), aperture (mode S), or shutter speed (modes A and M). If auto ISO sensitivity control is enabled in modes P, S, and A, the camera will automatically vary ISO sensitivity for optimum exposure when the limits of the camera exposure system are exceeded; in mode M, the camera will first use auto ISO sensitivity control to bring exposure as close as possible to the optimum and then bracket this exposure by varying shutter speed.
