Bracketing means to shoot two or more additional shots of a particular scene at slightly different settings... both over, and under what is determined as the "ideal" exposure. Typically, this is done with the aperture ring. If the scene requires 1/250 second at f-8, the shutter speed remains unchanged, but you would shoot at f-5.6, f-8, and f-11. Bracketing is most often used during difficult lighting situations to insure that at least one of the three shots in the series is properly exposed.
