AEB
Take three pictures in a series in different
exposures: standard exposure (0.0EV), short
exposure (-1/3EV) and over exposure (+1/3EV).
High resolution and picture quality increases file saving time,
which increases stand-by time.

selected, the flash will be off automatically.
If less than 30 pictures are available in the memory, the motion
capture is not available.
It is best to use a tripod for the AEB shooting as the time to
