All of the large format shooters I've met bracket in 1/3 stop, with a range of one stop in each direction. That means seven exposures for each shot. Most seem to toss all but the best three. Why would one save obvious culls? And why would a large format shooter not bracket extensively? One stop in each direction, with 1/3 stop bracketing seems to be the norm for pro, large-format shooters.
