Auto Bracketing
When auto bracketing is in effect, the camera varies exposure automatically with
each shot (to a maximum of three shots), raising or lowering exposure by a pre-
determined amount (up to ±2 EV) relative to the value selected by the camera or
chosen using exposure compensation. Auto bracketing is available in all exposure
modes.

This setting controls the size of the increments for auto bracketing.
11—AE/Flash Bracketing ( pg. 166)
If a Speedlight is used in combination with auto brack eting, both the flash level (TTL level for
the main subject) and exposure will vary with each shot. Using Custom Setting 11, you can
program the camera so that bracketing affects only the flash level or only the exposure value.
