The display changes as follows: No display (cancel) Multiple Exposure • Z appears in the LCD panel when the Multiple Exposure is set. 2 Rotate the Command Dial while pressing the ∆ button to set the necessary Exposure Compensation. • Test shooting is recommended since the compensation actually required varies depending on the shooting situation. • When the background is completely dark and subjects do not overlap, no compensation is necessary for each shot. • In some cases, frames may shift slightly in multiple exposure. In particular, film advance becomes unstable at the beginning and near the end of a film roll so multiple exposure is not recommended. Standard compensation value in multiple exposure Number of exposures Compensation value Two -1.0 EV Three -1.5 EV Four -2.0 EV Eight or nine -3.0 EV Exposure Compensation is necessary depending on the number of exposures in multiple exposure since more than one image is exposed in the same frame. 64 3 Compose picture, confirm focus indicator / and shoot. • The first shot is taken and Z and frame counter blink in the LCD panel when the shutter release button is fully depressed.
