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.

Press the 

G button to display the menus. 

Highlight Multiple exposure in the 
shooting menu and press

2.

Highlight Multiple exposure mode and 
press 

2.

The options shown at right will be displayed. 
Highlight On and press 

J.

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.
