What it Does Specifies in which order the camera implements the
bracketing feature
Recommended Setting 0 - +
When the exposure bracketing feature is enabled (as explained in Section
5.7.6), the camera takes three or five pictures, each at a slightly different
exposure to “cover your bases”. (This was especially necessary back in the
days of slides.) The question becomes, “In what order should the images
be taken?” The camera gives you two choices:
Choice #1: Normal Exposure Underexposed Overexposed (0 - +)
Choice #2: Underexposed Normal Exposure Overexposed (- 0 +)
I recommend the setting which takes the “normal exposure” first, only
because when you’re shooting things that move, the decisive moment
becomes a higher priority and the backup “just in case” exposure tweaks
are slightly less important.
