This is called AEB (Auto Exposure Bracketing) shooting.
You can set your camera so that the shutter speed and aperture value are changed automatically to capture three successive shots with exposure bracketing of ±3-stops in 1/3-stop increments.
NOTE
- AEB cannot be used with flash, [Multi Shot Noise Reduction], Creative Filters, or bulb exposures.
For details on exposure compensation, please refer to the Related Information section.

- Using AEB with [ ] [ ] (single shooting).
Press the shutter button three times to take the three bracketed shots.
- Using AEB with [ ] [ ] ] (continuous shooting).
If you press the shutter button completely, the three bracketed shots will be taken continuously in this sequence: standard exposure, decreased exposure, and increased exposure. The shooting will then stop automatically.
- Using AEB with [ ] (Self-timer: 10-sec./remote control) and [ ] (Self-timer: 2 sec./remote control).
You can take three continuous shots after a 10-sec. or 2-sec. delay.
NOTE
- During AEB shooting, < > in the viewfinder and < > on the LCD panel will blink.
- Follow steps 3 to 5 to turn off the AEB range display.
- The AEB setting will be canceled automatically if the power is set to <OFF>, flash recycling is complete, etc.
