Taking Photographs—Overlay/Multiple Exposure

6 Press the multi selector up or down to high- light Done and press the multi selector to the right. A icon will be displayed in the top control panel.

7 Frame a photograph, focus, and shoot. In continuous high-speed or continuous low- speed mode ( 43), the camera will record all exposures in a single burst. In single-frame

shooting mode, one photograph will be taken each time the shutter-re- lease button is pressed; continue shooting until all exposures have been recorded. Shooting will end automatically if:

•No operations are performed for 30 s during shooting, or for 30 s after the monitor has turned off during playback or menu operations

•The user selects Reset or Cancel in the mul- tiple exposure menu and presses the multi selector to the right

•The camera is turned off

•The battery is exhausted

•Pictures are deleted

If shooting ends before the specified number of exposures have been taken, a multiple exposure will be created from the exposures that have been recorded to that point. If Auto gain is on, gain will be adjusted to reflect the number of exposures actually recorded. To end shooting without creating a multiple exposure, press the button while turning the camera off.

The icon will blink until shooting ends. When shooting ends, multiple exposure mode will end and the icon will no longer be dis- played. Repeat steps 1–7 to take additional multiple exposures.
