  decided to try bracketed shots. Instead of capturing a glorious range of dark to bright, it dutifully snapped three identical photos. After quiet a few more goes, and a lot of expletives, still all identical. The moral of this story is, Don’t use auto ISO!!!!

  Ouch indeed. Just be glad you didn’t burn through a whole roll of film to discover that.

  lol – I can’t say I have run into that one.
  
  I find bracketing shots and combining them post to be extremely fiddly and it sounds like you found one of the reasons why (and one that I didn’t know yet). Don’t get me wrong I like the results but I’m just not sure the results for me are worth it. It’s the kind of thing I might do if I were entering a competition or something. And even then maybe not.
