Yes, it is normal. If what Procyon says is true, then use P-mode to set the exposure manually, and just make sure that the aperture is the last setting you dial in. I suppose Pentax figured that if you are shooting in manual already, you would do your own bracket.

Returning to my original post i wonder if anyone sees the wisdom in using bracketing in M mode? I mean, with the variation in DOF, and blending in CS3, isnt this the same idea as focus stacking? I cannot verify myself as i dont have access to a PC or Mac on the island.

As always your response has been fantastic. Thanks everyone

Peter
