This mode makes a three-image bracket of a scene. Bracketing is a method of taking a
series of images of a static subject in which each image has a slight variation in
exposure. The bracketing mode is set with the drive-mode button (p. 38). Brackets
cannot be made with TIFF images (p. 46).
The order of the bracket series is normal exposure, underexposure, and overexposure.
The exposure bracket can be made in 0.3, 0.5, or 1.0 Ev increments (p. 73). The larger
the number, the greater the difference in exposure between the images in the bracketed
series.

Immediately after selecting the bracketing
drive mode with the drive-mode button, a
selection screen is displayed so that the
bracketing increment can be set. Press the
left/right keys of the controller (1) to select the
bracketing increment. Press the central button
of the controller (2) to set the value. To change
the increment, select the bracketing drive
mode again with the drive-mode button. After
the bracketing increment is set, the left/right
controller keys are used for exposure

The remaining number of frames in the bracket series is displayed on the monitor next to
the bracketing icon. If the memory is filled or the shutter button is released before the
series has completed, the camera will reset and the entire bracket must be made again.
If the red low-battery indicator appears, the bracketing drive mode is disabled. The flash
cannot be used with the bracketing drive mode.
When using exposure compensation (p. 51), the bracketing series will be made in
relation to the compensated exposure. Under extreme conditions, one of the bracketed
exposures may be inaccurate because it is outside the exposure control range of the
camera.
