Double Exposure, Loading 1st Image?

[RooDog]

I’ve been doing Double Exposures on my 70D. I usually select a previous photo as my base photo. Then select 2 exposures, 1 shot only. Every time I have to reselect all options. Even if I select Continuous Shooting, I still have to reselect my base photo.

It doesn’t look like it, but is there an option to use Continuous Shooting, but have it always use the same base photo? So after I load my base photo (Like a silhouette of my dog) I shoot my 2nd exposure. Then my 1st silhouette image of my dog reloads for another double exposure.

Thanks, Greg

Why not just use an editor (Photoshop, DPP 4, et al) that lets you combine the images in post-processing? Probably make it easier to avoid the blown highlights too.
