In a word, YES. I have two digital cameras that will allow double/multiple exposures onto one frame. One setting also controls the change needed in total exposure, to be done automatically.How's that for letting the camera do the talking.

Anyone tried doing a D Ex on a bridge camera namely a Panasonic Lumix FZ48?
Thanks for any info.

In a darkend room, set the camera on a tripod, go to manual or bulb setting, cover the lens with a hat or dark piece of cloth, have subject in first position, remove lens cover, manually activate flash (off camera), cover lens again, move subject to 2nd position and repeat. It is a good idea to lower the power of the flash since multiple exposures can blow the picture out. When you get the shots you want, close the shutter.
This is one type of painting with light and can be repeated as often as you want. I had my son sitting at all 4 places around a table in one image.

With Nikon if you look in the Shooting Menu for Multiple Exposure you are able to configure the camera for multiple exposures on the same RAW image. Not sure if it is all Nikon's.

On My D800 there is a setting for Multiple exposures.

Nikon's D3, D800 and D7100 have a Menu Multiple Exposure setting. If I recall the D300 did also

My Nikon D5200 has the capability of making an in camera double exposure, their is a multiple exposure setting that allows three photos to be superimposed. Other newer or high end models may do it also, but not many so far. I had a D3200 that didn't, as would not 2 earlier Canon models I have. So it is possible, but it is not like the film camera, where, if my memory serves me correct, for I used to love making double exposures to get a surreal or an abstract quality, all you had to do was press the rewind button on the bottom of the camera, which disengaged the cocking mechanism, so you could cock the shutter without advancing the film. I did a shot once where I took a photo, took a few steps, took another one, and repeated the process for a distance and got a really neat effect.

My Nikon D3100 allows double exposure. I would assume that all Nikon DSLR's are capable,

On Nikon cameras , the answer is yes. Menu>Shooting Menu>go to Multiple exposure and set the number of exposures)
I know you can set this on the D200, D300 and the D800. On other model, check the shooting menu.

Add the D600 to the list. ;)

My Nikon D700 will do multiple exposures. However, I'd rather do multiple exposures in PP to have a bit better control of the final image.

Because this is digital, unlike negative you cannot. Only in PP and likely with a better and more predictable result, sorry.
My D300 can take a double exposure.

Most Nikon DSLRs offer this in camera, even more than two exposures if you need them.
The D3xxx series does not.

Larry,
I have had double exposures on several different occasions. My most resent is a partial double where 3 legs appear and the rest of shot is normal. Very strange happening as it certainly wasn't planned.

The new Canon 70 also has double exposure. You can do an average, which means it will equalize the exposure for each picture or you and do an overlay and lay one picture on top of the other. Fun to play with.
