Bracketing sequence suggestion

shawl
Contributor

I would like to suggest that two new bracketing sequences be made available: 0, +, + and 0, -, -, etc. I have found times when such a sequence could be helpful. Making these available should be trivial to do, I'd think.

This is already possible with the current implementation in the cameras.

So if I want 0, +2 and +4 bracket I set the camera to bracketing with 2-stops and offset the exposure compensation by + 2 stops.

I can see that when set for aperture or exposure priority! But, how about when set to Manual? I am not seeing how to move the exposure compensation in that case. Perhaps I am missing something?
