I've never had a camera that would do an in-camera double exposure but a friend has one. It's probably a print camera? He wants to know if he wants one person to look like a ghost, should he have the person in the first or the second shot? |

I have and have had several digital cameras that performed multiple/double exposures. They don't always do it the same way; some give you choices that would affect they manner of overlay. If you are dealing in film, it is a simple matter of knowing that lighter things obliterate darker things. More or less. The order won't matter; what will matter is how much you up or down the exposure of each frame. |

I've been remiss in not coming back to thank you for your excellent and prompt response, tnun In fact, I saw and passed it along almost immediately. I didn't respond at the time as I thought there might be others with something to add. |

Yes, it is possible, here you can see an example where I have tried to explain how I did it. See if this help! |

It's also possible to get a double-exposure if your camera has a bulb mode and you cover/uncover the lens manually while keeping the shutter open. |

I've done that myself. Thanks for the reminder. |

This is what General is referring, this is in camera setup and cover of sensor:
