camerabuff58, Here is a link to a method that I have not tried, so I do not know how well it works. Gary http://www.dummies.com/how-to/content/how-to-take-double-exposures-using-your-digital-sl.html

When you are attempting a double/triple exposure using a dslr, do you have to adjust for exposure as you would with a film camera or does it digitally adjust in the dslr automatically.

Later model Nikons have a multiple exposure feature in the menu. I have used it for a nature photo class I was taking. It compensated for the exposure automatically. But I was only shooting in a small area. Not sure how it would do if you took a dark image then a brighter one on top. But with no developing cost give it a try.

I'm not going to fill in for JR1, believe me!

I don't mind questions being asked over again. Gives some of the new members a chance to jump in, sometimes with better answers than previously posted. I've noticed some new members with a great knowledge base lately.

For not meaning to fill in for JR1 you are doing an excellent job.

Thanks!

Let's see...
I helped the OP give the post a usable/searchable title, suggested he could do a search, but prefer to see answers from new posters, gave an answer and welcomed the OP back.
Yea, that sounds exactly like JR1.

Jack, you might want to check his previous posts- nearly 7,000, all of them on point, helpful and informed. Goofy is an asset to this forum and BTW, he makes his living in photography... ;)

I saw JR1 over on Cambridge in Color forum one day last week. He seemed like a different person. He was actually trying to be polite. Anybody who is missing him could go over and have a visit. :roll:

Here are a couple of examples of multiple exposures done in-camera on the 5D3. They were my first ever attempts at this and after a couple of wobbly pops. They are a couple of model cars on the floor, the camera in 'Live View' on a tripod, each picture was a set of three exposures. I did read page 180 of the manual and went from there. From the quality of the pictures which are pretty bad, I think I should have read a few more pages. (Added to my to do list.) With the 5D3 a person can have do two to nine multiple exposures. You can adjust the settings manually let the camera do it for you. Going back to the camera manual (without the wobbly pops) it seems taking multiple exposures is pretty easy to do.
