Varying Settings Over A Series Of Photographs (Bracketing) - Olympus E-M1 Mark III Instruction Manual

Varying settings over a series of photographs
Bracketing is used to vary shooting settings such as exposure and white balance
over a series of shots. Depending on the setting, you may be able to combine several
different forms of bracketing. Use bracketing if you are unsure what settings to use or
lack the time needed to change settings during shooting. You can also store bracketing
settings and later recall them simply by turning bracketing on.
AE BKT (AE bracketing)
The camera varies the exposure of each shot. You can select
the bracketing increment from 0.3 EV, 0.7 EV, and 1.0 EV. In
single-frame shooting mode, one photograph is taken each
time the shutter button is pressed all the way down, while in
4
sequential shooting mode the camera continues to take shots
in the following order while the shutter button is pressed all the
way down: no modifi cation, negative, positive.
• Number of shots: Choose from 2, 3, 5, or 7.
• A t icon is displayed in green until all the shots in the bracketing sequence have been
taken.
• The camera modifi es exposure by varying aperture and shutter speed (mode P), shutter
speed (mode A), aperture (mode S), or ISO sensitivity (mode M).
• If an option other than [AUTO] is selected for [ISO] (P. 75, 91) in mode M, the
camera will instead modify exposure by varying shutter speed.
• The camera brackets the value currently selected for exposure compensation.
• The size of the bracketing increment changes with the value selected for [EV Step]
(P. 191).
• Exposure bracketing cannot be combined with FL or focus bracketing.
WB BKT (WB bracketing)
Three images with different white balances (adjusted in
specifi ed color directions) are automatically created from one
shot, starting with the value currently selected for white balance.
• White balance can be varied by 2, 4, or 6 steps on each of
the A – B (Amber – Blue) and G – M (Green – Magenta) axes.
• The camera brackets the value currently selected for white
balance compensation.
• WB bracketing cannot be combined with ART or focus bracketing.
