Is there a direct way to find out which, mostly current, cameras feature multiple exposures in-camera? And how they work? (I should probably cut my umbilical cord to dpreview). I have 2 cameras that can do this, each slightly differently, the Pentax K01, and the Panasonic LX3. I think some Nikon DSLR's do this too.

I'll have to check that out. (First I'll have to find my manual.)

My D700 does it and it's a choice on one of the menus. Haven't tried it yet.

I play with it now and then and really enjoy it. It has a gain feature as well for exposure management across the captures. Very fun as long as you embrace the randomness of it and don't think, "you know, I could do this with more control in post."

I'm waiting to get an idea that would benefit from the feature. Randomness = art.

Yes, my Leica, and D300 and d800 all do it.

I'm supposed to be doing a 52 Week project using this technique but have more or less put photography on hold at the moment.

I find it rather fun to see how things come out. Sometimes it works, others not so much

what bohemka said. it is about the fun of it. and there are some very cunning moves to be made using a tripod. which I think about doing. there are things you can and cannot change between shots depending on the camera. which is why I want to find out more specifically about new cameras that come on the market.

Sarah, had I been aware of that I would have liked to join. Kind of hard to get a good one every week. It is a LOT of hit or miss.

As a general aside, it can be very beneficial to use for crowded areas. As long as the weather isn't change much, it largely gets rid of people standing around for you. Just make sure you use a tripod. Many of the Nikons are capable of doing it.
I enjoy doing double exposures with film, however, in the random sense you mention for the technique.

I saw an article recently on a woman that does this in-camera and the images were pretty amazing. Here is a link with a tutorial:

I do not think my camera does this.

My 6D does. I'll try some.

I checked the manual and one downside of the 6D is that does not save the individual files only the final image created.

Fuji S3 Pro, about 3 years ago.

D7000, last Jan.
This one is in the Florida Weekly this week.

Florida Weekly, Audubon Corkscrew Swamp

I haven't tried it yet, but I think that with the D7000, you can combine images in the camera after the fact as well, producing a new image of the edit.

Thanks for the link Mark, this looks like it would be fun!
