Bracketing
Bracketing automatically varies exposure, Active D-Lighting, or white balance slightly
with each shot, "bracketing" the current value. Choose in situations in which it is
difficult to set exposure, Active D-Lighting, or white balance and there is not time to
check results and adjust settings with each shot, or to experiment with different
settings for the same subject.

D Exposure Bracketing
The camera modifies exposure by varying shutter speed and aperture (mode P), aperture
(mode 5), or shutter speed (modes Aand M). If On is selected for ISO sensitivity auto control
(~ 149) in modes P, 5, and A, the camera will automatically vary ISO sensitivity for optimum
exposure when the limits of the camera exposure system are exceeded. In mode M, shutter
speed will only be changed after the camera has adjusted ISO sensitivity.
