Multiple Exposure feature on Canon 6D

[AlanK]

I purchased a Canon 6D for the Multiple Exposure (ME), among other reasons. My problem is that in order to enable the ME function I had to reset camera settings which caused the wifi feature to be disabled.
Is this common or am I doing something wrong?

Thank U for the info. The instructions guide that was included with my camera did include this info

Correction: Instruction guide did NOT include this info

Glad to help. I got the info from the PDF manual from Canon site. You can download it. I download my manuals and add them to my iPhone.

I believe Canon has been providing abbreviated printed instruction manuals with their recent cameras. But did a CD also come with it? If so, that may be where the real manual is.

Yes, I have CD, but my Apple laptop does not have an optical drive. I can download manual from Canon's website. Thank U for the assistance.

Hi John -

Great reply to the OP for how to set up the multiple exposures.

I have the 6D Mark II and setting up for the multiple shots was relatively straight-forward but I'm having some difficulty in set the right exposure level to get three shots with equal exposure.  I've tried the Additive (and set the exposure to 1 stop) and Average (with 0 stop bias).  With the Additive, the first image was slightly underexposed but the second and third shots were severely underexposed in the final image.  With the Average, the first image was severely underexposed but the second and thrid images were only slightly underexposed.

What settings woudl I have to make to get three images of equal exposure?

Thanks.

Dave
