Exposure and Flash Bracketing

Bracketing automatically varies selected settings slightly with each shot, “bracketing” the current value. The setting affected is chosen with Custom Setting e4 (Auto bracketing set; pg. 191); below, it is assumed that AE & flash is selected to vary exposure and flash level. Other options can be used to vary exposure or flash level separately or to bracket white balance or Active D-Lighting.
