The camera brackets the exposure automatically up to +/- 3 stops in 1/3- stop increments for three successive shots. This is called Auto Exposure Bracketing (AEB). AEB is possible by automatically changing the shutter speed or aperture or by changing the ISO speed and keeping the shutter speed and aperture fixed.
AEB with the Shutter Speed or Aperture
AEB with the ISO Speed
|
Set the AEB amount.
- Hold down the <AF> and <> buttons simultaneously and turn the <> dial.
- The diagram on the left shows an AEB amount of +/- one stop centering on the standard exposure level. The AEB amount (1.0), the AEB range <>, and the <ISO> icon will be displayed.
- The shooting operation will be the same as AEB shooting while changing the shutter speed or aperture.
|
- AEB shooting (by changing the shutter speed/aperture or ISO speed) cannot be used with flash photography and bulb exposures.
- AEB shooting is possible only within the settable shutter speed range (1/ 8000 - 30 sec. ), aperture range, and ISO speed range (100 - 1600). It is not possible with ISO 50 and 3200 even if the ISO speed extension is [On].
- If you use C.Fn-06-2 to set the exposure setting increment to 1/2 stop, AEB shooting with the ISO speed will not be possible.
|
- In the continuous shooting mode, holding down the shutter button will take all three bracketed shots continuously, then the shooting will stop automatically (except during mirror lockup).
- When AEB is used with the self-timer, the three bracketed shots will be taken in succession after the 2- or 10-second self-timer delay.
- If the drive mode is set to single shooting, press the shutter button three times to take the three AEB shots.
- AEB can be combined with exposure compensation.
- During AEB shooting, the <*> icon in the viewfinder and the <> or <ISO> icon on the LCD panel will blink.
