AEB can be helpful when scenes are very light or very dark.
The Nikon D70s digital single lens reflex camera has an automatic exposure bracketing feature. When AEB is turned on, the camera takes multiple shots of the same scene, but with slightly different exposure settings. In the event that the camera's automatic exposure system chooses the wrong exposure, bracketing increases the likelihood that one of the pictures will have the right one.
Instructions
Setting Bracketing Mode
1. Press the Menu button on the camera's back panel to display the menu system. Use the down arrow on the directional pad to select the CSM Menu option, and then press the right arrow to enter the Custom Settings menu.
2. Scroll down to Detailed, then press the right arrow.
3. Press the Menu key a couple of times until you see the list of menus, scroll to the CSM MENU option and press the right arrow.
4. Scroll down to option 12 -- BKT Set -- and press the right arrow to activate it.
5. Scroll to "AE only" to activate AE bracketing or "AE & Flash" to activate automatic exposure bracketing that also modifies flash settings. Press the right arrow to select it. You can now press the Menu key to exit the menu system.
Using Bracketing
6. Tap the shutter button without pressing it to get your camera back into shooting mode.
7. Hold down the "BKT" button and rotate the camera's main control dial until you see BKT in its top panel and you see the exposure compensation icon, which has a "+" and a "-" sign in a square, start blinking.
8. Hold down the "BKT" button and rotate the camera's secondary command dial, located on the front of the grip unless you changed the camera's settings, to select your desired bracketing program. The display will show the bracketing option with a number, an "F", another number, and a graphic. The first graphic shows how many shots it will take, the second number shows the exposure difference, and the graphic shows whether they will be positive, negative or both. For example, "3 F 1.3 + -" means that the camera will take three shots -- one properly exposed , one 1.3 stops underexposed and one that is 1.3 stops overexposed. If the display shows "2 F 0.7 -" it will take two shots: one that is properly exposed and one that is 0.7 stops underexposed.
9. Compose your picture and, when you're ready, press the shutter button once for each shot in the sequence.
10. Turn off AEB by holding the "BKT" button and turning the main control dial until the "BKT" indicator disappears from your camera's display.
