Exposure
Start shooting.
• In single-frame shooting, the exposure changes every
time the shutter button is pressed.
• In sequential shooting, hold down the shutter button until
the selected number of frames are taken.
• Releasing the shutter button stops auto bracketing
shooting. When it stops, 0 is displayed in green on
the super control panel.
How AE bracketing compensates exposure in each shooting mode
Depending on the selected shooting mode, exposure is compensated in the following way:
P mode : Aperture value and shutter speed
A mode : Shutter speed
S mode : Aperture value
M mode : Shutter speed
To apply AE bracketing to the exposure value you have compensated:
j Compensate the exposure value, then use the AE bracketing feature. AE bracketing is applied to
the exposure value you have compensated.
The higher the ISO value, the greater the camera’s light sensitivity and the better its ability to
shoot in low light conditions. However, higher values may give pictures a grainy appearance.
[AUTO] : The sensitivity is set automatically according
to the shooting conditions. With the [ISO-
AUTO SET] setting, you can set the
maximum ISO that is set automatically.
g“ISO-AUTO SET” (P. 87)
[100 - 1600]: Fixed ISO sensitivity.
To automatically set the optimal ISO in M mode:
j Normally, the AUTO setting is not available in M mode, but you can set it for use in all shooting
modes. g“ISO-AUTO” (P. 87)
