Taking photographs with automatic exposure
bracketing - k
Many attractive subjects are very rich in contrast, i. e.
they have both very light and very dark areas. The
resulting effect can be quite different, depending on
which sections you base your exposure on. In such
cases, you can use automatic exposure bracketing to
produce several alternatives with graduated exposure.
You can then select the most appropriate picture for
further use.

Three graduations are available: / ,

well as 2 numbers of pictures: 3 or 5.
Exposures are in the following sequence: correct
exposure, under exposure, over exposure; with 5
pictures there are 2 additional exposures with inter-
mediate values in the corresponding sequence.
Notes:
• Automatic exposure bracketing is not possible with
video (ü) and sound (w) recordings, or in conjunc-
tion with flash mode. If the flash unit is turned on,
only one picture is taken. The same applies to
pictures with raw data storage and to series of
5 pictures with the highest resolution (2560) and
the lowest compression rate ( n ).
• Depending on the available shutter speed/aperture
combination, the working range of the automatic
exposure bracketing can be limited.
• An bracketing series is only ever activated for a
single process, i. e. to repeat it, you have to set it
again.
