True. But what if you were taking longer exposures where contact with the camera would probably introduce some movement. I use this technique for landscapes and water shots. Also, you can use it to shoot several groups of bracketed photos.

How would I be able to do this if I wanted to use a cable release?

Also,my function button only works in burst mode if I continuously hold it down. Why dose this happen???

Thanks.

@rivd666 well, if you wanted to use cable release, you would just press the cable down as you would do the shutter normally. this technique is useful if you want to shoot a lot of sequences and don't want to constantly press the shutter release. also, somebody mentioned using a remote earlier. that's fine, but with this technique, you can walk away from the camera and let it do it's thing until it was done.

Great thanks. What lens did you have on this camera in the video?

[red95isback]

@Langoskarli sorry..i didn't realize this video got this many views. The lens is the Tokina 11-16 2.8.  Great lens for landscapes.

Is there such a thing as hdr hd DSLR video on the D300s/D300?

Don't need to do neither - set the release to CH and hold the shutter down after you've set your bracketing mode and the camera will automatically rack through the frames until it's done.

[tourmaline07]

No need to set the intervalometer - once the frame count and bracketing interval are set he could just shoot as normal and the camera will take care of it.

I love your friendly way in this tutorial, Thanks..

[rivd666]

OK I figured it out!

If anyone else has this problem...

In "Interval Timer Shooting", instead of pressing "enter" for "Start OK",press "enter" for "ON". That way your burst bracketing is live and ready to go as soon as you hit the shutter or cable release.

Hope this helps.

-Thanks for responding.

I guess my Real question is "How can I do BURST Bracketing with cable release?"

(Without having to hold down the function button or use timer mode.)

I just want to press the shutter 1 time, but my camera (D200) won't allow it.

I have to take individual shots or hold down function button simultaneously.

Is there something in the menu that I'm missing?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks.
