Photography Question

multiple exposure with digital


hey you guys I just made the jump to digital, upgrading from a minolta maxxum 7 to the maxxum 7D, and noticed I have now lost my multiple exposure option. Anybody know any ways of going about making multiple exposures? I have Photoshop but your all going to laugh (it's only 2.0). Anyway of doing it in that version of Photoshop? Please explain how too (I only realy know how to clone stuff out, I almost never play with it and it's somthing I'd like to start learning about) thank you for all your help. Happy Holidays!

  Justin,
I use Photoshop to create multiple exposures - my camera (and I don't think any digital) offers that feature.

I'm not a Photoshop guru - AT ALL. But I created layers with each photograph I wanted in the multiple exposure and then adjusted the opacity on each layer. Because I'm a CPA by trade - I divided 100 by the number of layers to get the % opacity of each layer. I'm certain someone with more artistic talent could offer a better solution than my numeric approach. Jean
