Bracketing automatically varies exposure, white balance, or
Active D-Lighting (ADL) settings slightly with each shot,
“bracketing” the current value. Choose in situations in which it is
difficult to set exposure 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.
