1 What is Multi Exposure? Multiple Exposure, is a photographic technique that combines 2-9(Canon) different Exposures into a Single Image. The technique has been practiced for several years. Two types of Multi Exposure a) In Camera b) Using Adobe Photoshop (This document only deals with in camera Multi Exposure.) (7D MkII) NOTE: Every time Camera is Switched Off - Multi Exposure is DISABLED (See bottom of page 22) NOTE: When using Multi-Exposure - Set Auto Power Off to Disable (Camera Sleep Timer) Aspect Ratio 3:2 (see page 14) Set to DISABLE Please refer to your own Camera user Manual for similar Multi Exposure information.

3 1. Camera SettingsMultiple Expodure Canon EOS 7D Mk II a b c d e f See next page a Note - On:ContShtng - Only Result Saved ContShtg Shooting Mode is designed for multiple exposures of a subject in motion. On:Func/Ctrl mode allows you to build multiple exposures shot-by-shot. NOTE: Every time Camera is Switched Off - Multi Exposure is DISABLED (See bottom of page 22) b (Range 2-9) c d e Page 3(32 )

4 When using Setting On:Func/Ctrl you can use Live View to position where and how much of he next Exposure you want to include etc. (See pages 14, 16) Flashes f) Using a previous Image as First Exposure f Canon cameras allow you to combine a photo taken the conventional way, with an exposure taken in the multiple exposure mode. To try this, choose the Select image for multi.expo option. If you've set the total number of exposures to two, you now only have to shoot one extra exposure in multiple exposure mode to complete your composite. See page 15 Nikon cameras take this a step further by allowing you to select any two images from the camera's media card and combine them using a feature Nikon called Image Overlay. This is particularly flexible because you can simply keep combining pairs of images and applying exposure adjustments as needed to make your composite raw image.

7 3. Canon MultiExp Tags - MetaData Values and Examples Note: For Shoot Ctrl Setting On:ContShtng (Only Result is Saved) Control Setting On:Func/Ctrl allows you to build Multiple Exposures Shot-by-Shot, and use Live View to position next Exposure. Option to Save All Exposures or Result only Multi-Exposures Modes - Additive - Average - Bright - Dark Reference: Canon MultiExp Tags [On] indicates Setting On:Func/Ctrl use D-Menu (see page 25) Some Examples : 2..9 [On (RAW)] indicates Setting On:ContShtng - (Only Result Saved) use CompData Menu (see page 29) a) [On (RAW)] indicates On:ContShtng b) c) [On] indicates On:Func/Ctrl d) Page 7(32 )

8 3A. Nikon MultiExp Tags - MetaData Values Reference: Multi Exposure Shots Range 2-10 Range If you set auto-gain to "ON" in the Multiple Exposure mode, the camera will adjust the exposure of each frame automatically for the number of multiple exposures you are combining (e.g. for 2 frames, each will have 1/2 the metered exposure.) So in theory you will not have to make any manual adjustment for multiple exposures--just tell the camera how many exposures you are combining. Page 8(32 )

9 4. MetaData for Exposures 1-3 and Result Exposure MetaData Example of First Image - Number of Exposures Set to 3 Image: 2017_09_Mar_(Multi_Exp2)_014.CR2 (Top Image page 5) White Balance (Kelvin 5091) Note: Multi Exposure Off, Multi Exposure Shots 0 White Balance (Kelvin) MetaData On:Func/Ctrl Mode: Additive (Exposure 1 of 3) Page 9(32 )

11 MetaData Example of Third Image - Number of Exposures Set to 3 Image: 2017_09_Mar_(Multi_Exp2)_016.CR2 (Top Image page 6) White Balance (Kelvin 2500) Note: Multi Exposure Off, Multi Exposure Shots 0 WB: Manual Temperature(Kelvin) MetaData On:Func/Ctrl Mode: Additive (Exposure 3 of 3) Page 11(32 )

12 MetaData Example of Result Image - Number of Exposures Set to 3 Result Image: 2017_09_Mar_(Multi_Exp2)_017.CR2 (Lower Image page 6) White Balance (Kelvin 2500) Note: Multi Exposure On. RESULT IMAGE Number of Multi Exposure Shots = 3 White Balance (Kelvin) MetaData On:Func/Ctrl Mode: Additive Exposure 1 of 3 MetaData On:Func/Ctrl Mode: Additive Exposure 2 of 3 MetaData On:Func/Ctrl Mode: Additive Exposure 3 of 3 Please Note: Mode: AVERAGE for 3 Additive Exposures Camera Setting On:Func/Ctrl Mode: AVERAGE RESULT IMAGE Page 12(32 )

13 5. Information on the Four Exposure Modes Additive Additive mode simply overlays images, one over another. The exposure in any overlapping areas will increase in direct proportion to the respective Brightness of the combined areas. The exposure of each single exposure is added cumulatively. For example, an image overlaid on top of itself or an image of the same Brightness will become one Stop brighter because you have effectively given it twice as much exposure. The same image overlaid on a Black background, however, will be largely unaffected because the Background contributes no additional exposure. When combining areas of similar brightness you would normally therefore Decrease your exposure by one Stop for each image. For example, if you were to Combine Four images you would Decrease the exposure for each image by four stops (-4 EV). N.B. From the MetaData on pages 9-12 it shows that the Result Image for the 3 Exposures is the Average of the 3 Additive Exposures. Note Note: The card-writing speed for Additive is longer than with the other multi-exposure control settings. Average Average mode produces results similar to the Additive mode, but with one important difference: Average will automatically adjust the exposure in any overlapping areas to prevent overexposure, based on the number of exposures you combine. Any non-overlapping areas will be rendered with a normal exposure. Bright This mode gives exposure priority to Bright objects so that they will retain their Brightness even when combined with a dark background. When dark areas such as night skies, buildings, and trees overlap, their brightness will not increase. Dark This mode gives exposure priority to Dark objects so that they will retain their Brightness even when combined with a light background. When Bright areas such as Highlights overlap, their Brightness will not increase. a)auto Exposure Bracketing, b)auto Lighting Optimizer, c)highlight Tone Priority, d)peripheral Illumination Correction and e)chromatic Aberration Correction are disabled during multiple-exposure shooting. The image-recording quality, ISO speed, Picture Style, high ISO speed noise reduction, color space, etc. you set for the first exposure will apply to ALL subsequent exposures in a multi-exposure sequence.

22 12. Tips and Tricks Reference: N.B. Before you start set Cameras Auto Power Off to DISABLE, - if the Camera is Powered Off then Multi Exposure is cancelled. Multiple Exposure - Some Tips & Tricks to Remember The actual steps for taking Double (Multiple) Exposures may be simple, but you will still need to follow some tips and consider some tricks that can help you. 1. Although there are no set rules for Double (Multiple) Exposure photography, it is important to follow some techniques. For example, you need to know that using lighter or Brighter subjects is not recommended because this will affect the details of the image. Instead, use Darker scenes or subjects. The best advice? Use silhouettes. They work best for double exposures. 2. However, it is also important to go a little extraordinary. You can, for instance, use a Dark silhouette over a Bright or shining White Background. The effect will be quite dramatic, with the White Washing out the image and creating an interesting scene. 3. You can also choose to shoot Double Exposures that come out like ghostly apparitions. To do this, simply position your subject away from the frame. This will create a translucent illusion. 4. Of course, some DSLR photographers, especially those who are busy, prefer to create double exposures with the help of a software. But, where's the fun in that? It's always exciting to try out something new in photography. 5. Note: when using a Tripod - Turn OFF Stabilization. Practice makes perfect? The image-recording quality, ISO speed, Picture Style, high ISO speed noise reduction, color space, etc. you set for the first exposure will apply to all subsequent exposures in a multi-exposure sequence.

23 13. Multi Exposure Example - White Balance(WB) Color Temperature (Kelvin) Kelvin (K) ( See Kelvin chart page 21 ) The Color Temp can be set from 2500 Kelvin to Kelvin in steps of 100 Kelvin increments Setting On:Func/Ctrl Mode: Average Multi Exposure Shots = 4 1. Set up your camera to take Four exposures in Average multiple exposure mode using either Aperture or Shutter priority. 2. Set the white balance to 2500ºK to produce a strong Blue tint and zoom out for a wide-angle shot. Position the horizon in the top quarter of the viewfinder and take the first photo in the sequence. 3. Turn on LiveView and zoom in slightly so that you can see the magnified overlay which will become your next nearest line of hills. Pan the camera to a different part of the horizon to create some 4. Reposition the horizon lower still on the LiveView screen. Zoom in a little more and with the White Balance set to 5500ºK, take the third photo. 5. Finally, zoom in fully, pan the camera again for some foreground interest and position the horizon near the bottom of the screen. Increase the White Balance(WB) to 7000ºK and take the final photo. (See Example page 19) Page 23(32 )
