Image Overlay - Nikon D300 User Manual

My Recommendation: This is a cool function for
persnickety people and I'm one of them! If you like to
fine-tune the color of your pictures—but hate using the
computer—here's your control. You can introduce almost any
color tint into the image by moving the little black square in
any direction, using combinations of colors to arrive at one
that pleases you. This also allows you to overcome current
color casts caused by various lighting-source color
temperatures. Very flexible camera, eh?

Image Overlay

(User's Manual – D300S page 324; D300 page 339)
The Image overlay function is a nice way to combine two
RAW images as if they were taken as a multiple exposure.
Basically, you can select a couple of NEF (RAW) shots and
combine them into a new overlaid image.
The results can be a lot like what you get when using
Shooting Menu > Multiple exposure, but Image overlay gives
you a visual way to overlay two separate images instead of
shooting multiple exposures on one picture.
The results can be of high quality because the overlay is done
using RAW image data.
Here are screens and steps to do an Image overlay (see
Figure 6-9):
