# maxBracketedCapturePhotoCount

The maximum number of images that the photo capture output can support in a single bracketed capture.

```
var maxBracketedCapturePhotoCount: Int { get }
```

## Discussion

To perform a bracketed capture of multiple images with varied capture settings, create a [`AVCapturePhotoBracketSettings`](/documentation/AVFoundation/AVCapturePhotoBracketSettings) instance containing the combination of settings and bracketed variations you want. The maximum number of photos per capture depends on the size and format of images to be captured.

> Not all devices and capture formats support bracketed capture. If the current device or active format does not support bracketed capture, this property’s value is zero.

This property supports key-value observing.
