R6 MK ll Bracketing shots not registering on SD card

Barny — Fri, 17 Jan 2025 10:50:49 GMT

Hi, Iv'e recently taken 3 bracketed shots with my R6 M2, but when I check them out, the sd card only shows 2 photos, a jpeg and cr3.

Iv'e rechecked the bracket menu settings and it's for 3 shots. The R6 is on a tripod and hand operated shutter. I'd be grateful for any assistance. The R6 has the latest firmware v1.5

Many thanks

When auto exposure bracketing is active, it is important to know that the drive mode will determine how many times you need to press the shutter.

With drive set to single shot, you will have to press the shutter 3 times to do the sequence of exposures.

With the drive mode set to one of the continuous modes, you can keep your finger on the shutter and the camera will take the three exposures then stop while the shutter is held down.

With the drive mode set to 2s or 10s self timer settings the camera will take the three shots automatically for you.

With the drive mode set to self-timer continuous it will take a compete set of three bracketed exposures for each of the preset number of shots you choose. So if I set this to take 4 photos then it will take four sets of three bracketed images once the initial timer delay runs to completion.
