Anyway, yesterday Sue and I went with Ann and few other people from the camera club to the Swiss Garden at Shuttleworth near Biggleswade. I only took my Olympus OMD em1 mkii Camera. It can do multiple exposures but only two at a time and there are none of blending options that the canon has.
So I thought I would have a play with multiple exposures as one of my projects for the day.
I was pleased to be able to find a work round for the 'only two combined images' of the camera. Its quite simple really, you do your double exposure and then select that image as the first image for the next pair of exposures. It worked quite well.
The other nice thing the Canon can do is you are able to change the white balance so that you can create coloured abstracts. Now with the Olympus you can change the Kelvin (colour temperature) by using the colour wheel on the first of the two exposures and then it is then fixed.
The thing I did like about the Olympus is that I could see the first exposure overlayed in the viewfinder. On the Canon 5D mk4 I have to switch to Live View and use the back screen. This is not normally a problem except when you are in bright sunshine.
I am still very happy with the Olympus but I might just have to save up and trade it in for the new Canon R full frame mirrorless camera :) that has all the features my 5Dmk4 has but has an electronic viewfinder.
All pictures here where the in camera file with some adjustments in Lightroom post processing.
Some images where straight multiple exposures, some where with one (or two in one case) taken at slow shutter speed to give Intentional Camera Movement (ICM). The last three images I used the Olympus Live Composite Mode, something the Canon does not have.
I still have a way to go, the images I am producing are not quite as abstract as I would like them to be.
