Default Automatic Bracketed Shots

In a Canon DSLR, you can set the camera do automatically take a bracketed shot for you (up to 3 exposures).

1.) Hit the menu button
2.) Go to the camera settings section and find "AEB"
3.) Hit the set button in the middle of the thumbwheel
4.) Turn the thumbwheel to the distance of the bracketing (i.e. 1 or 2 stops)
5.) Hit the set button again to save your setting
6.) Set the timer to 2 seconds
7.) Compose your shot and set your aperture and shutter speed for a "correct" exposure
8.) Take the picture...in 2 seconds your camera will take the "correct" exposure shot, then automatically take the next two...one underexposed and one overexposed.
9.) The settings will stay active until you turn your camera off.
