“”"The new Rebel T2i also has an expanded ± 5 EV exposure compensation range allowing for much more versatility when shooting in extremely bright or dark environments; or when shooting HDR (high dynamic range) images.“”"

My question is… does the camera shoot 3 AEB and allow +/-5.0EV? Because their language says exposure compensation range.  So is it a capture “range” of 5EV or how it reads preceding those words which shows ± 5 EV with the focus on the Plus or Minus.

Currently they have no user  manual available for download so this is a mystery at the moment.  CanonUSA.com doesn’t show a line item for AEB (Auto Exposure Bracketing) like they usually do for their cameras so again… no definitive answer as of yet.  The fact they made a point to comment on the expanded range for HDR capture makes me believe they jumped up significantly here.  I can’t wait to hear the actual specs.

I’ve pre-ordered one through Amazon already.  The manual controls of full HD video, an external mic input, frame rates, etc… make this a no brainer backup body and video workhorse for certain shoots.
