FEB: Flash Exposure Bracketing

You can take three flash shots while automatically changing the
flash output for each shot from -3 to +3 in 1/3rd stops. The camera
will record three images with different exposures: one exposed
according to camera calculations, one over-exposed and another
under-exposed. Over and under exposure amount is user
adjustable. This function helps get correct exposure especially in
shooting moving objects or when environmental lights are complex.
●
FEB will be cancelled after three photos are taken.
●
For best results, set the camera drive mode to "single" and
ensure the flash is ready before shooting.
●
FEB can be used with FEC and FEL.
