AUTOMATIC BRACKETING
Many attractive subjects are very rich in contrast, i.e.
they have both very light and very dark areas. The
effect can be quite different, depending on which
sections you base your exposure on. In such cases, the
automatic bracketing function in aperture priority mode
on the Leica M Monochrom enables you to produce
several alternatives with graduated exposure, i.e. using
different shutter speeds. You can then select the most
suitable picture for further use, or use appropriate
software to create a picture with an exceptionally high
contrast range (HDR).
The following are available:
– 4 graduations: 0.5EV, 1EV, 1.5EV and 2EV
– 3 numbers of pictures: 3, 5 or 7
– 2 sequences: correct exposure, overexposure,
underexposure or underexposure, correct exposure,
overexposure.
Notes:
When using automatic bracketing, all AUTO ISO
settings (see p. 116) are specified:
– The sensitivity automatically determined by the
camera for the first picture is also used for all
other pictures in a series, i.e. this ISO value is not
changed during a series.
– The settings in the
AUTO ISO sub-menus have no
effect, i.e. the camera's full shutter speed range is
available.
Depending on the initial shutter speed, the working
range for automatic bracketing may be limited.
Examples (always with fixed aperture setting):
– Metered shutter speed
1
/
1000
s, series of 5
pictures/2EV: Limited function as the -2EV picture
would require
1
/
16000
s.
– Metered shutter speed
1
/
125
s, series of 5
pictures/2EV: Unrestricted function as the -2EV
picture is possible at
1
/
2000
s.
– Metered shutter speed
1
/
1000
s, series of 7
pictures/1EV: Limited function as the -3EV picture
would require
1
/
8000
s.
– Metered shutter speed
1
/
500
s, series of 7
pictures/1EV: Unrestricted function as the -3EV
picture is possible at
1
/
4000
s.
Regardless of this, the specified number of pictures
are always taken, which may mean that several
pictures in a series have the same exposure.
Only 0.5EV and 1EV graduations are available for
series of 7 pictures.
Automatic bracketing is not possible when using
flash. If an attached flash unit is turned on, no picture
is taken.
The function itself remains active until it is
deactivated in the menu. If it is not deactivated,
another series of pictures is taken each time the
shutter release button is pressed.
Setting the function
1. In the picture parameters menu (see p. 97/110),
select
Bracketing (4.2.4), and
2. set whether you want to turn the function on or off.
3. In the main menu (see p. 97/110), select
Bracketing setup (4.1.9),
4. select
No. of exposures, Sequence, or EV
increments
in the sub-menu, and
5. set the desired values or options in the sub-menus.
