Image Overlay
Only large NEF (RAW) photographs with the same image area and bit-
depth can be combined.
The overlay has the same photo info (including date of recording,
metering, shutter speed, aperture, exposure mode, exposure
compensation, focal length, and image orientation) and values for
white balance and Picture Control as the photograph selected for
Image 1
. The current image comment is appended to the overlay
when it is saved; copyright information, however, are not copied.
Overlays saved in NEF (RAW) format use the compression selected for
NEF (RAW) compression
in the
NEF (RAW) recording
menu and have
the same bit depth as the original images.
