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 it is difficult to set exposure, flash level (i-TTL and, where
supported, auto aperture flash control modes only; see pages 122, 246, and 305),
white balance, or Active D-Lighting and there is not time to check results and adjust
settings with each shot, or to experiment with different settings for the same subject.

❚❚Exposure and Flash Bracketing

To vary exposure and/or flash level over a series of photographs:

1
