    24-Aug-2016
    8203034300

    Solution

      By changing the shutter speed or aperture automatically, the camera brackets the exposure up to ±3 stops in 1/3-stop increments for three consecutive shots. This is called AEB.
      *AEB stands for Auto Exposure Bracketing.

      1. Turn on the camera.
      • Set the camera's power switch to <ON>.

      2. Select the shooting mode.
      • Set the Mode Dial to <P><Tv><Av><M>.
      Press the lock release button.
      Turn the Mode Dial.

      3. Select [Expo.comp./AEB].
      • Press the <MENU> button to display the menu screen.



      • Press the <> button and turn the <> dial to select the [ ] tab.

      • Turn the <> dial to select [Expo. comp./AEB], then press <>.

      4. Set the AEB range.
      • Turn the <> dial to set the AEB range.
      • If you turn <>, you can set the exposure compensation amount.
      : AEB range
      : Exposure compensation amount

      • Press <>.
      • When you exit the menu, the AEB range will be displayed on the LCD panel.



      5. Take the picture.
      • Three bracketed shots will be taken according to the drive mode set in this sequence: Standard exposure, decreased exposure, and increased exposure.
      • AEB will not be automatically canceled. To cancel AEB, follow step 4 to turn off the AEB range display.

      NOTE
      • During AEB shooting, [ ] will blink in the viewfinder.
      • If the drive mode is set to [ ] or [ ], press the shutter button three times for each shot. When [ ][ ][ ] is set and you hold down the shutter button completely, the three bracketed shots will be taken consecutively and the camera will automatically stop shooting. When [ ] or [ ] is set, the three bracketed shots will be taken consecutively after a 10-sec. or 2-sec. delay.
      • You can set AEB in combination with exposure compensation.
      • If the AEB range exceeds ±3 stops, the end of the exposure level indicator will display [ ] or [ ].
      • AEB cannot be used with flash, bulb exposures, or when Multi Shot Noise Reduction or HDR Mode is set.
      • AEB will be canceled automatically when you set the power switch to <OFF> or when the flash is fully charged.
