I, too, would appreciate a clear and easy to follow description of how to do this. It would be immensely helpful to a lot of forum members.

2 sec timer & 12 sec timer are single-shot drive modes... maybe you're referring to anti-shock 2 sec. But you'd still need to hold you down the shutter, and you've got 2 seconds between each frame.

I'm quite interested to see how this works, as I presume you're not trolling.

Well, let's not gang up on Sammyboy for no reason. His solution is somewhat different than what he previously presented, maybe we'll get more insight in what is meant through some of these posts.

I personally don't care too much for that function, auto AEB burst with delay...

No, I suspect he thought he discovered something & is trying it out again, but if there is a hidden bit of detail within the firmware of the camera that can do this, then I'm all ears, but if it didn't work, that's Ok. It can happen to the best of us.

It wouldn't be a sticking shutter button that is giving this result, would it?

I'm excited to hear how it works if he can replicate it. If not, no loss.

Let's hold back on the personal attacks.

The timing is in the EXIF of the images you first posted and then pulled. I have copies of them, and the EXIF shows they were taken 2 seconds apart. That's 0.5 FPS, not exactly a high speed burst.

The images you posted and then removed are available here, posted with EXIF still intact, just in case you've lost them:

I still don't get how it goes into burst mode with bracketing if you've set the drive mode to the 2 second delay, unless that is now a feature of firmware 1.2 as opposed FW 1.1 which would be ideal if it is.

BTW, for the rest of us (on FW1.1), if there is no cable remote available, bracket burst can be achieved (with drive mode set to Sequential Hi & with no Antishock delay time) by using the touch screen method (as well as selecting the focus point). Because it is capacitive & not resistive & with the camera mounted on a tripod, the screen can be touched (with a light touch) continuously until the sequence of shots are taken without the physical pressing of the shutter button causing physical movement to the setup.

I'm also on 1.1 and can't seem to get this to work. Can anyone else with V1.2 confirm that this works with the 2s timer? Might actually make it worth the risk to update the firmware...
