I shoot mostly RAW and bounce back and forth between aperture and shutter priority, depending on the subject and circumstances. My question: Which do you prefer, aperture or shutter priority, for bracketing if you are shooting for HDR processing? Aperture, of course, means that your shutter speeds will vary, while shutter means that your aperture will change with each shot. My gut tells me to shoot shutter priority and let the aperture change.
Your opinion?
I'm far from an expert and still learning, but I use Manual (M on my Canon) setting when I am bracketing exposures. From what I can gather, the shutter speed on my camera is what gets adjusted from one shot to the other. I would worry about aperture changes if you are taking landscape shots due to slight focusing changes throughout the frame.
I'm sure more experienced folks will be able to provide a more detailed explanation.
