Taking Photographs-Exposure Bracketing The D2Hs offers three types of bracketing: exposure bracketing, flash bracketing, and white balance bracketing. In exposure bracketing, the camera varies exposure compensation with each shot, while in the case of flash bracketing, flash level is varied with each shot (i-TTL and auto aperture flash control modes only; 105, 107). Only one photograph is produced each time the shutter is released, meaning that several shots (up to nine) are required to complete the bracketing sequence. Exposure and flash bracketing are recommended in situations in which it is difficult to set exposure and there is not enough time to check results and adjust settings with each shot. In white balance bracketing, the camera creates multiple images each time the shutter is released, each with a different white balance adjustment ( 101). Only one shot is required to complete the bracketing sequence. White balance bracketing is recommended when shooting under mixed lighting or experimenting with different white balance settings. White balance bracketing is not available at white-balance settings of (Choose color temp.) or (preset) or at image qualities of NEF (Raw), NEF+JPEG Fine, NEF+JPEG Normal, or NEF+JPEG Basic. Exposure and Flash Bracketing 1 Select the type of bracketing to be performed using Custom Setting e5 (Auto BKT set; 192). Choose AE & flash to vary both exposure and flash level (the default setting), AE only to vary only exposure, or Flash only to vary only flash level. 2 Pressing the button, rotate the main command dial to choose the number of shots in the bracketing sequence ( 98-100). At settings other than zero, a BKT icon and bracketing indicator will be displayed in the top control panel, and a BKT icon will appear in the viewfinder. 96
