N80 Bracketing

[vijay_kumar3]

I am considering buying the N80. I have never used a camera with

built in bracketing before.

 

My question is if I want to do 0.5 stop brackets (say +/-2 stops)

will the bracketing go as follows -2,-1.5,-1, -0.5, 0,+0.5,+1,+1.5,+2

or some other order. If some one knows this detail I would

appreciate a reply.

 

Thank you.

The F80's bracket function shoots either three frames (normal, under-, over-exposure) or two frames (normal, over-exp. / normal, under-exp.). For details, check the included file (p.62 of the manual).<br><br>

i believe there is a CSM to alter bracketing order.

Thanks Angel and Chris for the prompt replies. I wonder if there is a way to do a +/-2 bracket or even a +/- 1 bracket in 1/2 stops.

There's nothing to stop you from simply doing this yourself, in manual.

 

The auto bracketing is a 'whizzy' feature, and once you fully understand how it works you can rip off bracketed 'trios' at motor drive speed. Just don't get so hung up on that you lose sight of how easy it is to simply shoot-adjust-shoot-adjust-shoot-adjust-shoot.
