Response to Bracketing

Mari, The easy answer is if your normal setting is as you say 1/125th @ f5.6, under exposure would be 1/250th @ 5.6 and over would be 1/60th @ f5.6. You can do the same thing with your f stop instead of shutter speeds. It would look like this: with 1/125th @ f5.6 being your normal exposure... 1/125th @ f4 would be 1 stop over and 1/125th @ f8 is one stop under exposure. Every time you change your shutter speed higher, your halfing the amount of light thereby under exposing... and when you slow your shutter speed, i.e. going to 1/60th, your doubling your light. Not wanting to get to technical and confusing you more (I know it can be very confusing at first), Kodak has some pretty good books on Basic Photography and should be able to be found at your library. Cheers
