MULTIPLE EXPOSURE

Turn either dial to select the number of exposures.

Press the shutter-release button partway down to enter the setting.

Press the shutter-release button all the way down to take the first picture.

• M2 will appear in the data panel.

Repeat step 6 until all the exposures have been made.

Multiple-exposure mode is cancelled and the camera is automatically set to single frame advance after all the exposures have been made.

If the battery is removed before a multiple exposure series is complete, multiple exposure will be cancelled, but the film will not have advanced to the next frame.

Tell your photofinisher there are multiple exposure frames on the film. Some photofinishers may not automatically print multiple exposure frames.

You may want to use exposure compensation to underexpose each exposure so the final image on the frame is not overexposed (p 74).

CANCELLING MULTIPLE EXPOSURE

Cancel multiple-exposure mode by setting another drive mode.

It is also possible to change the number of exposures remaining in the multiple-exposure series after starting the series. Follow the instructions for Setting Multiple Exposure. The number of exposures set will be the number remaining.

Example A: After starting a multiple exposure series, the number of exposures is changed to 1. Multiple exposure mode will cancel after the next exposure is made.

Example B: After shooting 8 exposures of a multiple exposure series, the number of exposures is reset to 9. Multiple exposure mode will cancel after 9 more exposures are made.

• Values 0 - 9 are available.
