The Photography Thread: Double Exposure

Beautiful shots there Cleets. Very Christmas card-like. :)

felix - I used my Nikon D80. You can do up to 3 exposures in one shot. I've just discovered it! =D (I never read instructions).
 
one of these days i'll read the (huge) instructions for mine. that little green 'auto-everything' setting is both a blessing and a curse.
 
Who can be arsed with manuals anyway?. I Just press all the buttons until I get some results.

btw - is that a bluelighters pussy?. I think I recognise it. :D
 
Thanks TG, twas a beautiful crisp winter day oop north, so I thought I'd grab the opportunity.

BTW - that cat looks like Ron Mael from Sparks =D

Hey TG: i've got a D80, how do you do the multi-exposures?
 
EDIT: Glad you enjoyed them, Sham. :)

The first one says an awful lot to me. It conjures many different emotions. The second one is simply beautiful . And the kitties are just typically kittie-like. :)

Yeah, I think you were the one who recommended it to me. :)

OK, so look on the back of the camera and press the menu button. Then scroll down to 'SHOOTING MENU' (it's the little camera symbol). Then scroll down to the very last option on the list and select 'multiple exposure'. You'll get an option of either 2 or 3 exposures. But you must make sure that the camera is on a manual setting for this function to work.

You're in EADDland now, Damien. Smart ass replies are both acceptable and, quite frankly, encouraged (well, up to a point I suppose). We also insist that you spell "arse" properly ;)

On topic: Why are digital cameras so damned fiddly to work? Things that just take a bit of twiddling of nobs and rings (double oo-err, missus) or a change of lens at worst involve wading through endless menus on DSLRs. I will, of course, completely change my mind and decide I love DSLRs when I eventually acquire one myself :D
 
Yeah, I know what you mean. I avoided buying a DSLR for years simply because I enjoy the old school approach. I used to love working in the darkroom. The smell of the chemicals and the whole surprise element of it. But darkroom hire is expensive around here, and I'm so lazy that I hardly ever went. It's a real shame that digital is gradually wiping film cameras out as you get so much more character with a regular SLR. IMO. :)
 
^ I have the same problem. I have a complete dark room. The only problem with it is that it's disassembled and sitting in a box.
I think someone should open up a dark room / film & camera accessory store. You could rent out darkroom time and sell the paper there. You could also run workshops for a nominal fee to garner return business.
 
Another misty-eyed darkroom fan here. Used to get migraines from the chemicals but just loved the process of it all. Burning and dodging really needs to be done by hand to have that personal touch. So expensive though. Even the colleges around here have swapped darkrooms for rooms full of PCs cos Photoshop has all but replaced them. I know of one camera shop that still sells films, paper and so forth in the next town, but that's it - no darkroom facilities whatsoever. It's been tried, but the demand and interest just isn't there to make it viable in many areas :\

Still got my old SLRs just in case though :)
