Very helpful. One question: My Nikon D70 has exposure variations of 1/2 or 1/3. I got that. I have exposure compensation On. I got that, too. But, in some information I got from the Nikon site, the D70 has + / - 5 EV. So, I presume that it should take five shots when set to continuous mode shooting, right? I get three, since I set it on 1/3 EV. I'm confused ... I know that I DID get five shots in continuous mode shooting today. What it an accident? Was I dreaming? I'd really LIKE to get five shots in a row with varying EV. That would be perfect. Can you explain if it is possible to get five EV variations, at either 1/2 or 1/3 EV setting? Thanks loads.

Can you please provide an idiots guide to do this?

I'm using AF-C and want to lock focus sometimes for several shots in a row.
