 Continuous Shooting (Autoexposure Bracketing)
At settings of Continuous H and Continuous L (
 88), shooting will pause after each 
bracketing cycle is complete.  When Single is selected, shutter-release button must be 
pressed once for each shot in bracketing cycle.
 Auto Flash and Auto ISO (Autoexposure Bracketing)
In auto fl ash mode (
 37), the fl ash setting for the fi rst shot in each bracketing cycle 
applies to the remaining pictures.  If the fl ash fi res on the fi rst shot, it will fi re for the re-
maining shots; if the fl ash does not fi re on the fi rst shot, it will not fi re for the remaining 
shots.  If sensitivity (ISO equivalency) is set to AUTO (
 52) in mode S or A, the sensitivity 
value for the fi rst shot in each bracketing cycle will also apply to the remaining pictures 
(in mode P, sensitivity will vary with each shot).
Autoexposure Bracketing
When  Auto bracketing is selected, exposure varies 
with each shot; the number of shots and amount of 
exposure compensation performed are selected from 
the sub-menu shown at right.  Values are added to 
the exposure compensation value selected with the 
 button (
 44).  Bracketing is performed by varying 
shutter speed (modes and M), aperture (mode S), or 
shutter speed and aperture (mode P).
