Hi Neil, (how are you doing?)

Yes. bracketing the ambient light while leaving flash exposure equal. That's what I'm looking for. Of course, I can do it manually, but I miss the feature... I can achieve FEB it with the 550ex. > (I *think* AEB usually brackets by altering shutter > speed, which wouldn't alter flash exposure - I'm sure someone can clarify > this point) Yes, except in Tv, where the aperture is used instead (when posible) > Second, since bracketing involves firing three rapid shots in > success there probably wouldn't be sufficient time for the flash unit to > recharge between each shot. That makes sense.
