Controlling Exposure

Auto Bracketing

Auto Bracketing is useful when you’re having difficulty determining the
proper exposure. This function lets you capture a sequence of images of
the same subject at three different exposure levels: appropriate exposure,
underexposure and overexposure.
You can use Auto Bracketing with four exposure modes. The following
table indicates the effect of Auto Bracketing in each mode:

1. Rotate the D-Dial to

.

2. Rotate the C-Dial to set the bracketing amount.

It can be set in 1/3 EV step increments up to ±3 EV. The Auto
Bracketing function continues until you set the amount to 0.

3. Rotate the D-Dial to the desired Drive mode.

The camera captures three images in the following sequence: appropriate
exposure, underexposure and overexposure.
For example: If you set the bracketing amount to 2.0, the indicator in the
viewfinder appears as in the following table:

* Measured value is the difference between the correct exposure value for
the camera and your setting value.
NOTE: The default Auto Bracketing sequence is: appropriate exposure,

underexposure and overexposure. You may change the sequence
using the Bracket Order Custom Setting. See
