Is it possible to do double exposure photos with the N90s? Is tehre a way
to override the automatic film advance?
Thanks

I think the only way to do it is with the MF-26 back, which allows mutiple
exposures (up to 19) on a single frame, and does a lot of other stuff too.

You may also shoot 4 or 5 frames, rewind, pull the leader back out and
shoot the same frames again. However you must half.

I always start the notch in the leader at the same place for the take up
spool. I think that is what you call it. You can also make more than
just a double. You may go as high as eight exposures. I recomend a
book called "Understanding Exposure" by Bryan Petterson. Go to your
local book store, find the article on deliberate double exposures.
Make notes. Don't by the book unless you want to. It cost me $22.50.
It will explain it to you.

I tried this technique without success before I got the MF-26 back. I
carefully aligned the same sprocket holes on the sprocket pins for both sets
of exposures, but never got frames which coincided on both exposures. Logic
suggests that the startup process would advance the same number of sprocket
holes for each roll loaded, but that wasn't the case (at least not on my
particular camera.)

If anyone else has had success with this technique I'd appreciate hearing
about it.
