Minolta Maxxum, Minolta, Dynax 7 manual Multiple Exposure, Compensate the exposures as follows

MULTIPLE EXPOSURE

The multiple exposure function makes it possible to expose 2 or more images on the same frame.

1. Turn the drive-mode lever to .

• appears in the display’s frame counter.

2.Compose the scene, then press the shutter-release but- ton all the way down to take the first exposure.

•After the first exposure, appears in the dis- play and is reverse printed telling you that the next exposure will be overlapped.

•Take additional exposures as desired.

•Additional exposures are counted only up to

, but an unlimited number of exposures can be taken.

•The number on the also increases up to 9.

3.Select another drive mode to cancel multiple exposure mode and to advance the film to the next frame.

The meter in your camera determines exposure (EV) based on the assumption that only one exposure will be made on each frame. When making multiple exposures, the EV for each additional exposure may need to be reduced or over exposure can result.

Compensate the exposures as follows:

Number of	1	2	3	4	6	8
Exposures
Exposure	0	-1	-1 1/2	-2	-2 1/2	-3
Adjustment

•The above corrections are intended as a general guideline. Some testing may be necessary to produce the desired results.

•Compensation may not be necessary if all of the exposures have dark backgrounds and the subjects of the exposures will not overlap.

•Exposure can be compensated in 1/2 or 1/3 EV increments using the exposure compensation function (p. 77).

•The camera can be turned off and back on during a multiple exposure series.

•When date/time imprinting is selected, the date/time will be printed when the film is wound.

•When using negative film, tell your photofinisher there are multiple exposures on the roll. Some photofinishers may not automatically print multiple exposure.

•If Custom 3-2 is selected, you can partially rewind the film and overlap an exposure on a previously exposed frame (p. 161-163).
