	You AE-1 users won't like this much.

	The best way to do double exposures is to sell your AE-1
and buy an A-1.  Double exposures are done by pushing in a
lever next to the film advance lever and advancing the film.
The film is always very nicely registered.  I don't mean to
sound snobbish, but the A-1 makes such things as exposure 
compensation, substitute metering, double exposures etc, etc
so smooth that I wonder why anyone who has Canon mount lenses
doesn't get an A-1 body.  It is FAR worth the extra $'s in the
long run.  And, note that I think it's just a good camera before
you get to all the exposure mode stuff.

	Ah well, I guess I'm just a biased snob.
