The camera offers three types of bracketing: exposure bracketing, 
flash bracketing, and white balance bracketing. In exposure 
bracketing (pg. 131), the camera varies exposure compensation 
with each shot, while in the case of flash bracketing (pg. 131), flash 
level is varied with each shot (i-TTL and, in the case of the SB-900 
and SB-800, auto aperture flash control modes only; see pages 186 
and 189). Only one photograph is produced each time the shutter 
is released, meaning that several shots are required to complete 
the bracketing sequence. Exposure and flash bracketing are 
recommended in situations in which it is difficult to set exposure 
and there is not enough time to check results and adjust settings 
with each shot.

In white balance bracketing (pg. 135), the camera creates multiple 
images each time the shutter is released, each with a different 
white balance adjustment. Only one shot is required to complete 
the bracketing sequence. White balance bracketing is 
recommended when shooting under mixed lighting or 
experimenting with different white balance settings.

At default settings, the camera varies both exposure and flash level. 
Custom Setting e4 ([Auto bracketing set], pg. 328) is used to choose the 
type of bracketing performed.
