AUTO BRACKETING

This function of the camera lets you take a sequence of pictures of the same subject at three different exposure levels; Appropriate Exposure, Under Exposure and Over Exposure. If it is difficult to determine the proper exposure, please use this function.

1

Set the “D”-dial to position.

2

Turn the “C”-dial to set the bracketing amount. (It can be set in 0.5 EV step increments up to ±3 EV).

3

Set the “D”-dial to drive area (P.14).

■The camera will take three pictures in the following sequence; Appropriate exposure, under exposure and over exposure.

■For example: If you set the bracketing amount to 2.0, the indicator in the viewfinder will show as follow.

 

P,A,S mode

M mode

First Frame

0.0

* Measured Value

Second Frame

2.0

-2.0 EV deviation from Measured Value

Third Frame

2.0

+2.0 EV deviation from Measured Value

(* Measured value is the difference between the correct exposure value of the camera and your setting value).

■The exposure bracketing can be used with 4 different modes.

PMode ; Both shutter speed and aperture value will be changed. A Mode ; Only shutter speed will be changed.

S Mode ; Only aperture value will be changed. M Mode ; Only shutter speed will be changed.
