Originally posted by Prakticant How did you set "One Touch Bracketing" menu setting in both of your cameras?
Number 9 in the menu is for one push bracketing, or something like that. If you set it to on, then it will take a series of photos -- 3 or 5 -- with a single shutter push when you are in exposure bracketing mode.
Just to post an example photo, this was taken a week or two ago.
This is the middle image of the series, taken using the optical viewfinder.

And this is the very darkest image produced a few seconds later when I pushed live view on and took another series. The brightest image in this series has almost no detail at all.

It is really odd, because it only happens with my 16-50. All the rest of my lenses have exactly the same exposure values with live view and using the viewfinder and the 16-50 gives the same exposures if I take a single shot in both modes. It is just for some reason if I am shooting a five shot bracket in live view that everything goes hay wire. It doesn't bother me enough to send it in to Precision to try to repair it and I don't even know if they could fix it, from what folks are saying about their performance.
