40d bracketing setting question

[shayneyasinski]

I want to shoot 1 pic but have to exposure setting so I would end up with 2 files.
can I do this?

I know that I can just do it when I shoot raw but I don't always shoot raw and I like to learn.

I think you can only bracket 3 exposures.

And each exposure requires 3 serparate shutter actuations. You can't shoot one photo and get 3 differerent exposures (you can however do this with white balance bracketing)

Exposure bracketing is setup under "Menu"

so handheld landscape photos would be out..

Shooting 3 right in a row at 6.5 fps gets them pretty closely lined up. Even so, it'll be easy to line them up if they're off. Most editing/hdr programs have that option anyways.
