welcome adrian, how bracting works varies,but not much.exposure is a bit different.but yes it is automatic. this is a criticl adjustment,mostly used for slide film at iso 100 or less,not consumer print films.the higher the iso the less the effect. now with the photo programs the exposure is not important.the capture is irrevelent,but post processing. the art of photography is gone,it's been replaced by post reproduction. the denial that this is more of what the scene looked like,should have been captured.add colors,darken shadows. it's not a film vs digital capture,but a real sense of life.well I just removed an imperfection.my sense that the highlights were more brillant. I recently viewed a sunset photo,not hard to tell shadows were darkened,some orange was added.noted. note it as art.

Another soliloquy. Bracketing will make the camera take a series of photos, one after the other, at different exposures. Basic way is set the camera to bracket, and it will take three photos in a row, one normal exposure, one over exposed, one under exposed. You set it to how much the ones that are over and under you want it to be. One stop over and under, half a stop over and under. With the N80, you have a choice of doing three, two, and as you explained it, one. You can also combine bracketing with exposure compensation to shift the bracketing to have all the shots in the sequence to be above normal, or below.

kinda short wasn't I gregory.well at least you gave a good explanation that might be learned,but usually not. most beginers,as I was,wrestle with this conception of stops. well just change the aperture one stop.yeah was it overexposed or underexposed.don't get that a lot.just a general blank question and usually,what is the rule. I suppose it's frustration gregory,from the galleries I visit.i can't give a generalization that all don't have a clue.but I can say that most don't have an understanding of settings and why the scene was rendered in a certain light. so adrian,why do you wish to know this,and what is your goal?and this question came up because of what? sam

Didn't come up because of alleged lost art or the evil ways of a photoshop program. That was a tangent that I don't see what it had to do with how a camera's auto bracketing works.

ok pepi,i'll try again. lazy and a fix,not evil depending on use. adrian,if you select one exposure,you must select wether you wish to overexpose or underexpose the shot. increments of 1/3,1/2 or 1 full stop. which I always thought was exposure compensation. however bracketing,as i've always understood it,takes,like you said, a 3 shot series of photos.after the selected increments are set,and then it will take them automatically. I may be confused,or my camera is different,but in bracketing,my camera takes only 3 shots,over and under depending on what I set.only in exposure compensation can I select how many shots I take. but bracketing is 3 shots.and only exposure compensation allows how many shots can be selected. myself,i believe you have the 2 confused adrian. straighten me out there pepi. sam
