Not sure we're talking about the same thing - but I'm using the term bracketing to refer to a shooting situation where I'm watching things change and making decisions along the way. For me this may apply to any number of situations where I get the shot as the meter recommends, next frame, new action, I consciously make a decision to delve into the shadows a bit more, next shot I consciously, make a decision to bring the highlights down, next shot, new action, I may be back on the meter's recommendation or I may have decided to keep exposing more for the shadows. As with any such discussion the subject determines the thinking. If we're talking KKK rally, or a bridal gown, I'll go for the highlight detail, etc. In all cases I'm working with in a bracket range that all shots will be useable. But I'll have subtle effect differences to choose from. I have only held the botton down on motor drives once or twice and then it was just to have that fun.
