Nikon S2H05000501 Recording Time, Restrictions on Bracketing, Confirming Autoexposure Bracketing

WB Bracketing

White-balance bracketing can be used if you are uncertain whether the op- tion selected in the white balance menu will produce the desired results, or if you want to experiment with different white balance settings without con- firming the view in the monitor before each shot. When this option is in effect, the camera creates three pictures with each shot: one image with the selected white balance value, one image with a reddish cast, and one image with a bluish cast.

Recording Time

Because the camera takes three shots each time the shutter-release button is pressed, the time required to save images to the memory card is approxi- mately tripled when white-balance bracketing is used.
