Double/Multiple Exposures - Nikon Motor Drive MD-12 Instruction Manual

DOUBLE/ MULTIPLE EXPOSURES
Your camera has a special double/multiple exposure
provision built-in in the form of the multi-exposure
button or lever. Merely depressing this button or lever
allows you to superimpose any number of pictures on
the same frame. This provision not only continues to
function with the motor drive attached, but opens up
creative possibilities that are just not possible when the
camera is operated manually.
When the
motor drive Soc selector is set to "S,"
the
double/multiple exposure situation is exactly the same
as for the camera alone, except that the trigger button
on the motor drive is used to trigger the exposure.
Remember to depress and hold the mu Iti-exposure
button or lever, with your left hand, before you
remove your finger from the trigger button. Otherwise,
the film will be advanced.

On the
"c"
setting, triggering the release button, while
holding the mUlti-exposure button or lever depressed,
will produce mUltiple images on the same frame. Either
the motion of the subject or your movement of the
camera will result in the images being separated, pro-
ducing an original and interesting effect. Hold the
multi-exposure button or lever depressed with your
left hand, while holding the camera normally with the
right. Remember to release the multi-exposure button
or lever just before the last exposure, so that the
camera is left ready for the next sequence with an un-
exposed frame in the film gate. If not, cap the lens
and make one "blank" exposure. The camera is then
ready for the next shot.
