So do I understand this correctly? Our 5D Mark II will only bracket 3 photos automatically? I'm using the AEB function and I can't seem to figure out how the make it take more than just 3 photos.

If your quick, it pretty much continuous. 1Dx, 1DM4, 5DM2, 7D, EOS-M, 8-15L, 17-40L, 24 TSE II, 24-105L, 50L, 85L II, 100L, 135L, 200L f/2.8, 300L f/4, 70-200L II, 70-300L, 400Lf/5.6

If your quick, it pretty much continuous. That's a great point! So you take three +/- 2 bracketed shots, then spin the exposure compensation to -1.0, press the shutter (three more photos) then the exposure compensation to _1.0, press the shutter (three more photos). Total of 9 bracketed photos. Is that what you're suggesting? 5DM2, 70-200 f/2.8 IS II, 16-35 f/2.8, Really Right Stuff BH-55 LR, Gitzo GT3531

yogestee "my posts can be a little colourful"  More info | Three exposures is fine for most situations. If you are doing one exposure or three, it's important to get right in the camera from the onset.. Jurgen

Total of 9 bracketed photos. Is that what you're suggesting? Yep, that's basically it, although I'm bracketting at one extreme first and then compensating down/up . eg. set bracketting range max to +2 and then compensating down 1Dx, 1DM4, 5DM2, 7D, EOS-M, 8-15L, 17-40L, 24 TSE II, 24-105L, 50L, 85L II, 100L, 135L, 200L f/2.8, 300L f/4, 70-200L II, 70-300L, 400Lf/5.6
