Image Overlay

Image overlay combines two existing RAW photographs to create a single picture that is

saved separately from the originals. The new picture is saved at current image quality and

size settings; before creating an overlay, set image quality and size ( 33; all options are avail-

able). To create a RAW image, choose an image quality of NEF (RAW).

Highlight Image overlay in the retouch menu and press the multi

selector right. The preview dialog shown at right will be displayed

with Image 1 highlighted.

Press OK. A picture selection dialog will be displayed.

Press the multi selector left or right to highlight the ﬁ rst photo-

graph in the overlay. To view the highlighted photograph full

frame, press and hold the

button.

Press OK to select the highlighted image and return to the preview

display. The selected image will appear as Image 1.

Optimize exposure for the overlay by pressing the multi selector

up or down to select the gain for image 1 from between 0.1 and

2.0. The default value is 1.0; selecting 0.5 cuts gain in half, while

selecting 2.0 doubles gain. The eﬀ ects of gain are visible in the

Preview column.

Press the multi selector left or right to highlight Image 2. Repeat

Steps 2–5 to select the second photo and adjust gain.
