Multi exposure on xt3

The default multi exposure feature on Fujifilm (xt3 for me) allows to combine 2 exposures, but apparently it can be changed to up to 9 but I have no idea on how to do it. Any thoughts?Thanks

Never done this but I asked ChatGPT which suggests a way to do it (unless it’s hallucinating!)

Yes! On the Fujifilm X-T3, the default multiple exposure mode only allows two exposures, but you can extend this up to nine exposures by enabling the “Additive” blending mode in the Drive Menu.

Here’s how you can do it:

Steps to Enable Multi-Exposure Mode with Up to 9 Exposures:

  1. Press the Drive Button (or access the Drive settings via the Q menu or main menu).
  2. Select Multiple Exposure.
  3. Press the Right Arrow (→) or OK Button to enter the multiple exposure settings.
  4. You’ll see options like:
  • Number of shots (default is 2, but you can increase this up to 9).
  • Blending Mode:
    • Additive: This allows you to keep stacking exposures.
    • Average, Bright, Dark: These affect how exposures blend.
  1. Increase the Number of Shots to your desired value (up to 9).
  2. After taking each shot, the camera will overlay them and let you continue shooting until you reach the selected number.
  3. Once finished, the camera will merge the images into a final composite.

Tips for Better Multi-Exposure Results:

  • Use Manual Mode (M) or Aperture Priority (A) to control exposure more precisely.
  • Experiment with different blending modes to achieve different artistic effects.
  • Consider using a tripod if you want precise alignment.

This feature is great for creative effects like ghost images, light painting, or surreal compositions. Let me know if you need more details! :rocket:
