Multiple Exposure
Follow the steps below to record a series of two or three exposures in a single
photograph. Multiple exposures can make use of RAW data from the camera image
sensor to produce colors noticeably superior to those in software-generated
photographic overlays.
❚❚Creating a Multiple Exposure
Multiple exposures can not be recorded in live view. Exit live view before proceeding.
Note that at default settings, shooting will end and a multiple exposure will be
recorded automatically if no operations are performed for about 30 s.

Extended Recording Times
For an interval between exposures of more than 30 s, select On for the Image review
(
0 150) option in the playback menu and extend the monitor-off delay for image review
using Custom Setting c2 (Auto off timers, 0 160). The maximum interval between
exposures is about 30 s longer than the option selected for Custom Setting c2. If no
operations are performed for approximately 30 s after the monitor has turned off during
playback or menu operations, shooting will end and a multiple exposure will be created
from the exposures that have been recorded to that point.
