Bracketing
Bracketing automatically varies exposure, flash level, Active
D-Lighting (ADL), or white balance slightly with each shot,
“bracketing” the current value.
Choose in situations in which
getting the right settings is difficult and there is not time to check
results and adjust settings with each shot, or to experiment with
different settings for the same subject.
Bracketing is adjusted using the Auto
bracketing set option in the photo shooting
menu, which contains the following options:
• AE & flash: The camera varies exposure and
flash level over a series of photographs
(0 147).
Note that flash bracketing is
available in i-TTL and, where supported, auto aperture (qA)
flash control modes only (0 196, 329).
• AE only: The camera varies exposure over a series of photographs.
• Flash only: The camera varies flash level over a series of
photographs.
• WB bracketing: The camera creates multiple copies of each
photograph, each with a different white balance (0 151).
• ADL bracketing: The camera varies Active D-Lighting over a series of
photographs (0 155).
