EXPOSURE BRACKETING
Many attractive objects are rich in contrast, which means they have
very bright and very dark areas. The image effect can be dramatical-
ly different, depending on which of these areas you choose to align
your exposure with. The automatic bracketing function in aperture
priority mode allows you to produce several alternatives with grad-
uated exposure values and varying shutter speeds. You can then
select the image you like best or use relevant photo editing software
to calculate an image with a particularly broad contrast spectrum
(HDR).
