Hello! Thanks for this very helpful video-however, my EOS R also states my first image as "unselectable" --I have read multiple comments on various platforms about this and don't understand. I shot the image in RAW, HTP (highlight tone priority) was not enabled when the photo was taken, and the lens I used for the unselectable image is the same lens I am using to shoot double exposures in camera today. I just want to use an image I took yesterday as my base image :(
This is a great question and sometimes you need to change some settings. Try only shooting in full frame, not 1:1 or 16:9. Also, turning off highlight tone priority and shooting in full raw might help too.
Thanks for sharing the experience.. i am having small issue i tried to follow what you said but when selling an image for my multi exposure it says not matching dont know what i am doing wrong
@@pablodiazphotography Hi no still figuring out but nothing to do with lens all lenses can do multi exposure i am doing something wrong somewhere specially the second photo i shoot not suitable for double exposure.
Kency Ting Awesome!!! I’d love to see what you created!!! From what I know, the ISO held constant once the first image is selected but you could try the shutter speed and the aperture by clicking the info button to adjust the light.
In general, I stick with additive for the best results in camera, however, here is an explanation: Additive - The exposure of each image is added cumulatively. You have to adjust exposure compensation based on the number of images. * Average - No compensation is needed as the camera determines the proper exposure for each image based on the number of shots taken. * Bright / Dark - The brightness or darkness of the base image and subsequent images are compared and the bright or dark area will be left the same.
Good video. Btw, audacity, fantastic, FREE software for your audio editing. It can really do a lot easily, like editing out background noise. Making everything uniform volume at cetera. Really good. Just a tip. Thanks for the information on double exposure. Honestly do a bit more in your videos
Can you please clarify what exactly happened when you select different options for "Multi-excos ctrl": Additive, Average, Bright, Dark. First one is kind of self-explanatory. I am trying to understand differences between Average, Bright and Dark. Thank you.
Additive and average are fairly similar with additive increasing the exposure on the second image, relative to the first and average will auto expose the second image in order to not overexposed the image. Bright gives preference to the bright areas and retains their brightness and does not make the overlapping image brighter. Dark keeps its brightness for the dark area of the first image and the second image will not increase in brightness more than the original image. That’s a lot of info, not sure I was completely clear but I will definitely make a video when I get a chance with samples.
Hi, great video but I am having problems with the option to select an image from the card. I get a message 'no compatible images' when I select that option. I have looked at the manual in detail and as suggested I have turned off Highlight Tone Priority and I have it set on Full Frame, still doesn't work. I have a canon EF lens and an adapter on my EOS RF, would that be the problem? The other ME settings work fine.
I have the canon r7 . I don’t have image save option . Does that mean I can’t choose any picture I want to do an overlay on ? Also, I tried to do the multiple exposure trick while you have the same person standing side-by-side, but one of them was upside down and I practised this by having my subject stand against a brick wall when I did the shot, my subject was transparent, you can see the bricks through his face & body The upside down image still turned out fine, but I could see through him with all the bricks.😂 please help
If it’s like most of the other R series cameras it should have the select first image as an option. I’m not certain why it wouldn’t. Perhaps try a different blending mode to get the desired outcome. The four blending modes are additive, dark, average and bright.
@@pablodiazphotographyjust found out I have to select jpeg in order to choose an image stored on the camera . All I have is raw as only one card is in there right now which is why o couldn’t select any an image I wanted to.
Elisabeth LaFontaine Thanks for the feedback Elisabeth and I’m sorry that my explanation on how to access Double Exposure in the camera and how to combine the images in camera was not much help to you. I will certainly try better next time.
Excellent video.. again. Thanks. Can’t wait to try this creative process for myself. ☮️
It’s a lot of fun, thanks for watching!
love your videos, I find them clear and concise and very easy to follow. You have helped me greatly with my EOS R
Thanks so much for watching and the great comment, it’s much appreciated!
Useful info. Glad you don't take yourself too seriously! 😜
Thanks, I try.
Thanks for this. I had the owners manual and the EOS pocket guide but not until I watched your vid did I get it right. Thanks again
Thanks for watching Jon!! Glad the video helped!! Cheers
I had no idea the EOS R could do this! Thanks.
Awesome! Glad it helped Nigel 👍🏼
Thanks for sharing. The display of menu system was very much help full
Thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed the video 👍🏼
Thanks for this I have the rp and your tutorial helped me as I didn’t know I had it. Loved the mistakes at the end too.
Ian Rowley Awesome Ian! Get creative with it!
Thanks beautiful work.
Thank you! Cheers!
Excellent explanations. Thank you!
Thanks for watching!
Yep a cool feature.
wow, love the storm trooper shots! 6:25, but the one with the person made of trees at 6:28 is my favorite!
Thanks my friend! Double Exposure photography was a blast.
Sweet! The EOS RP is slightly different...specially the dualPixel Thanks for the vid.
Both the R and the RP are excellent cameras! Thanks Carlos 👊🏼

Awesome, thanks for watching!
This was an extremely useful video. Very straightforward and I got exactly what I needed out of it. Thank you!
Thank you for the kind words, I really appreciate it!
That was fun! I am definitely not cleared to be in this sector haha
Thanks Joe! The Storm Troopers were legit!
Nice video, thanks
Thank you for watching!
thank you so much for this video
Natallia Lebedev You are very welcome Natallia! I really appreciate you watching, thank you 🙏🏼
That thumbnail!
Thought you might like that 😀
It is.
Great vid :) Just one question: On my R the button for 'Select image for multi. expo.' is off (grey). Can you tell me why ?
Make certain that disable is not selected and select On:Func/Ctrl. This should enable Select Image
It may not work with your lens that’s attached to the camera, there could be other things as well
Thanks for sharing the experience.. i am having small issue i tried to follow what you said but when selling an image for my multi exposure it says not matching dont know what i am doing wrong
This is a great question, I’m not sure what’s happening, I’ve not encountered that. Have you been able to fix the problem?
I wanted to follow up with you, did you figure out what was happing? It seems some lenses do not work with the multiple exposure feature.
@@pablodiazphotography Hi no still figuring out but nothing to do with lens all lenses can do multi exposure i am doing something wrong somewhere specially the second photo i shoot not suitable for double exposure.
Also, that Canon R, mint huh?
It’s a great camera 👌
Tried it! Thank you so much!
Question: Can you change the ISO for the next shot once the base photo has been taken?
Kency Ting Awesome!!! I’d love to see what you created!!! From what I know, the ISO held constant once the first image is selected but you could try the shutter speed and the aperture by clicking the info button to adjust the light.
Buenos Diaz Imagery thanks for the info!
Kency Ting My pleasure 👍🏼
Sir please tell
The type of multiple exposure function
Like there (additive, dark, light, avarage)
Explain those and how they work
In general, I stick with additive for the best results in camera, however, here is an explanation: Additive - The exposure of each image is added cumulatively. You have to adjust exposure compensation based on the number of images.
* Average - No compensation is needed as the camera determines the proper exposure for each image based on the number of shots taken.

Thanks J, appreciate the advice 👍🏼
I'm using a Canon Eos Rebel T5i but i dont see the Multiple exposure mode on there, any other alternatives?
An alternative would be be to use an editing software to manipulate the images instead of in camera.

Sorry you are having this problem. What EF lens are you using? Some lenses are not compatible.
I know its a year ago, but maybe it helps you or some others.
just saw that you have to shoot with a "RAW" format, to use pictures!
Đẹp quá. Tôi ước được sống ở đây với nghề chụp ảnh của mình . Tôi yêu nhiếp ảnh.
Thank you

@MosleydollMUA i’m very glad that you have it figured out and that you’re able to now collect an image for your multiple exposures. Enjoy.
Is double exposure possible in canon EOS 650 D? Thanks
I think this camera is also known as the Rebel T 4i, which unfortunately does not have the multiple exposure feature..
@@pablodiazphotography Ok Thanks for the reply. Cheers
Nice video but please never use that annoying ding when pointing stuff out
I appreciate the feedback.
Some camera settings would have been useful and seeing the shots as you took them. Really not much help as a tutorial.
