* Ambient light: Any light other than the flash light that shines on the scene
for an extended period of time, such as natural light, a light bulb, or a
fluorescent light.
• In bracket shooting, the same number of indices as the number of
recordable images is displayed on the EV scale. However, in flash bracket
shooting, the indices are not displayed in the viewfinder.
• When the bracket shooting starts, the indices that indicate already
recorded images start to disappear one by one.
• If the shutter button is pressed halfway down and released, "br 1"
appears. "Fbr 1" appears for the flash bracket. When flash bracket
shooting starts, it indicates what number the next frame is, for instance,
"Fbr 2," "Fbr 3."
