English term

and two frames perhaps one f-stop either side

Homework / test English to Spanish Art/Literary Photography/Imaging (& Graphic Arts)
"Most advanced D-SLR cameras have an autobracket setting. This clever little feature sets the camera to take three pictures automatically, in rapid succession: one at the “correct exposure,” one overexposed, and one underexposed. [...] By setting the camera to shoot one picture at the “correct” exposure—as the camera sees it—and two frames perhaps one f-stop either side, I’ll always end up with one frame that I consider to be the perfect exposure. You can change the increments of the brackets so that they are 1/3, 1/2, or 2/3 stop to either side of the “correct” exposure, depending on the camera model"

y dos fotogramas tal vez con una apertura(f) superior o inferior

F-stop hace referencia a la apertura del diafragma.

La idea es que la cámara hace su foto "automática" y luego hace una con un grado de apertura inferior y otro grado de apertura superior (por eso indica "either side", o sea "a ambos lados"...)

Habrá alguna forma más elegante de expresarlo, pero te dejo con la idea y espero que te ayude...

Un saludo y suerte.
