I presume it does this by reading out the image to its RAM each time, and clearing the sensor in between the 9 exposures? In that case, it's really no different to writing out 9 RAW single exposure files and merging them yourself in software. There's no signal to noise or DR difference.The Pentax 645D does up to nine exposures in one RAW file.
Dan, I wish I had your eyes. I probably walk past scenes just like this when I'm out with my family, and never think "that's the shot!" Perhaps my excuse is that, well, I'm out with my family and don't get the time and space to assess things properly.Thank you for your kind words Dave
I only try to avoid exaggerate perspective in the composition when I believe the scene is better off that way. Avoiding objects near the edges and first focuspoint atleast 2-3 metres away. That usually makes it look quite natural.
In this one I used the Distagon 40 and at a first glance it looks maybe wider than the boat simply because I chose the position with the poles to increase depth. So in this case it was an attempt to make it look wider than it is.
That sounds extremely familiar to me .Dan, I wish I had your eyes. I probably walk past scenes just like this when I'm out with my family, and never think "that's the shot!" Perhaps my excuse is that, well, I'm out with my family and don't get the time and space to assess things properly.

How is such a look possible without photoshop?
Shooting through a piece of angled glass to reflect a double image?
I think that is exactly what we ALL need to work on and get better at. Seeing interesting compositions and photography in ordinary, familiar and day-to-day scenes!Dan, I wish I had your eyes.

What would be closer to multiple exposure in the sense of how we do it on film, is if the sensor remained active in the darkness between exposures, with the previous latent image(s) still sitting on the pixels. Now that would be cool, as you could save bigtime on readout noise...assuming that the dark noise penalty of leaving the sensor "ticking over" between exposures was not greater than the noise of multiple readouts!
If you were working with long exposures, you could emulate this sensor mode easily. Set up the first scene, start a B exposure, cap the lens after the desired exposure time, set up the second scene, uncap the lens for the second exposure, cap the lens again,...and so on. End the B exposure once all captures are complete. Voila, one RAW file, one readout, multiple exposures. Low readout noise, possibly horrendous dark noise but it might work well with the long-exposure-friendly P45+, P30+, IQ260, P645D, or (these last two being firmware-limited to 2 or 4 minutes max :thumbdown Leica S2 and H4D-40.
