3Frame a photograph, focus, and shoot.

The camera will vary exposure and flash level with each shot.

 

At default settings, the first shot will be taken at the current

 

values for exposure and flash compensation and the

 

following shots at modified values. If the bracketing

 

sequence consists of three shots, the bracketing increment

 

will be subtracted from the current values in the second shot

 

and added in the third shot, “bracketing” the current values.

 

The modified values can be higher or lower than the

 

maximum and minimum values for exposure and flash

 

compensation. The modified shutter speed and aperture are

t

displayed in the control panel and viewfinder.

While bracketing is in effect, a bracketing progress indicator will be displayed in the control panel. The ysegment will disappear from the indicator when the unmodified shot is taken, the zindicator when the shot with the negative increment is taken, and the xindicator when the shot with the positive increment is taken.

To cancel bracketing, press the Dbutton and rotate the main command dial until the number of shots in the bracketing sequence is zero and Mis no longer displayed in the control panel. The program last in effect will be restored the next time bracketing is activated.
