Notes
• When the mode dial is set to M, the exposure is shifted by adjusting the shutter 

speed. If you shift the exposure by adjusting the aperture value, press and hold the 
AEL button and shoot the image.

• When you adjust the exposure, the exposure is shifted based on the compensated 

value with bracket shooting.

• When the flash is not used, ambient bracket shooting is performed and the shutter 

speed and aperture are changed to accommodate bracket shooting. When the flash is 
used, flash bracket shooting is performed and the flash light is changed.

• In flash bracket shooting, single shot is automatically selected regardless of the 

single/continuous setting. Press the shutter button shot by shot.

• In ambient bracket shooting, the EV scale appears in the viewfinder, too, 

but it does not appear in flash bracket shooting.
