Auto Exposure Bracketing
Standard Decreased Increased
exposure exposure exposure
•
The following shooting modes cannot be set together: white balance bracketing,
flash photography, bulb exposures, and AEB with a changing shutter speed,
aperture, or ISO speed.
•
If C.Fn-12-1 is set for mirror lockup and AEB is set, only one bracketed shot will
be taken at a time even in the continuous shooting mode.
•
The AEB range possible by changing the shutter speed is 30 sec. to 1/8000 sec.
By changing the aperture, the AEB range ranges from the lens' maximum
aperture (lowest f/number) to the lens' minimum aperture (highest f/number).
•
The AEB range possible by changing the ISO speed is ISO 100 to 1250. If you
set the AEB outside of this range, you can still take the picture, but the AEB
amount will not go beyond the ISO 100-1250 range.
•
If you use C.Fn-06-2 to set the exposure setting to 1/2-stop increments, you will
not be able to set AEB with the ISO speed.
•
If you set the drive mode to single-frame shooting, press the shutter button once
for each AEB shot.
•
After setting the AEB amount, you can also set exposure compensation to obtain
decreased exposed or increased exposed bracketing. If the combined AEB
amount and exposure compensation amount exceeds the display limits of the
exposure level scale, it will look like as shown below. However, the AEB shots will
still be taken according to the AEB and exposure compensation amounts you set.

The AEB sequence will be standard exposure,
decreased exposure, and increased exposure.

The viewfinder's exposure level indicator will
indicate the respective bracketing amount as each
shot is taken.
•
In the continuous shooting mode, holding down the
shutter button will take all three bracketed shots
continuously. The shooting will then stop automati-
cally.
•
When AEB is used with the self-timer, the three
bracketed shots will be taken in succession after the
2- or 10-second self-timer delay.
