Did you get much out of your manual on this function? Reply

From sheenawilkie/Administrator (0) on May 28, 2012 7:09:44 PM CDT EOS-1D models have custom function C.Fn I-6 for 2, 3, 5 or 7 shots in a sequence. It's also possible via another custom function C.Fn I-4=1  to set the camera to not automatically cancel the automatic exposure bracketing even if the camera is turned off. Since EOS cameras allow the steps of the bracketed exposures to be set from 1/3 to 3 stops this would mean the EOS-1D models could actually do autoexposure bracketing over a range of 18 stops. EOS-1D Mark IV shoots at 10fps or reducing the difference between multiple frames, making even handheld HDR possible. You need to spend some time with your manual. Page 209. Reply
