Image overlay combines two existing NEF (RAW) photographs to create a single
picture that is saved separately from the originals; the results, which make use of RAW
data from the camera image sensor, are noticeably better than overlays created in an
imaging application.
The new picture is saved at current image quality and size
settings; before creating an overlay, set image quality and size (093, 95; all options
are available).
To create a NEF (RAW) copy, choose an image quality of NEF (RAW).
