The camera varies exposure by 0.3 EV, 0.7 EV, or 1.0 EV over three shots. In single-frame 
shooting mode, one photograph is taken each time the shutter button is pressed all the way 
down, while in sequential shooting mode the camera continues to take shots in the following 
order while the shutter button is pressed all the way down: no modifi cation, negative, positive. 
Number of shots: 2, 3, 5, or 7

The 

0 indicator turns green during bracketing.

The camera modifi es exposure by varying aperture and 
shutter speed (mode  P), shutter speed (modes A and M), 
or aperture (mode S).

Three images with different white balances (adjusted in specifi ed color directions) are 
automatically created from one shot, starting with the value currently selected for white 
balance.

White balance can be varied by 2, 4, or 6 steps on each of 
the  A – B  (Amber – Blue)  and  G – M  (Green – Magenta)  axes.
The camera brackets the value currently selected for white 
balance compensation.
No pictures will be taken during WB bracketing if there is 
not enough memory on the card for the selected number of 
frames.
