Exposure
The camera automatically shoots a number of pictures at different exposure values for each
frame. Even in conditions where correct exposure is difficult to obtain (such as a backlit
subject or a scene at dusk), you can pick the picture you prefer from a selected number of
frames with a variety of different exposure settings (exposure and compensation values). The
pictures are taken in the following order: Picture with optimum exposure, picture adjusted in –
direction, and picture adjusted in + direction.
Compensation value: 0.3, 0.7 or 1.0
• The compensation value will change if the EV step is changed.

time the shutter button is pressed.
• In sequential shooting, hold down the shutter button until
the selected number of frames are taken.
• Releasing the shutter button stops auto bracketing
shooting. When it stops,

How AE bracketing compensates exposure in each shooting mode
Depending on the selected shooting mode, exposure is compensated in the following way:
P
mode : Aperture value and shutter speed
A
mode : Shutter speed
S
mode : Aperture value
M
mode : Shutter speed
To apply AE bracketing to the exposure value you have compensated:

Compensate the exposure value, then use the AE bracketing feature. AE bracketing is applied to
the exposure value you have compensated.
