Picture mode
THE MONITOR
The camera features a large 3" LCD color monitor (35). The Leica
M-P monitor was protected by a glass cover made of exceptionally
hard and scratch-resistant sapphire glass. In picture mode with the
live view function activated, it shows the image detected by the
sensor through the attached lens. In review mode, it is used to view
the pictures taken on the memory card. In both cases, it shows the
entire image field, along with the selected data and information
(see p. 242).
Setting the brightness
The brightness of the monitor image can be set using the menu.
You can choose from automatic control, i.e. depending on the
ambient brightness, and five manual levels, so that you can adapt it
perfectly to the relevant situation:
1. In the main camera menu, (see p. 154/248) select
Monitor
Brightness
(page 3,
SETUP section), and
2. select the automatic setting or the desired level in the
sub-menu.
Notes:
With the exception of the menu system (see p. 154), you can
(optionally) view all of the displays described in this manual in
exactly the same way in an attached electronic viewfinder (such
as the Leica EVF2, available as an accessory, see p. 226).
The
EVF brightness option in the SETUP (page 3, SETUP
section, see p. 154/248) can be used to set the brightness of
this kind of viewfinder in exactly the same way as described
above.
LIVE VIEW MODE
Live view mode on this camera enables you to view the subject in
the monitor when taking a picture, with a precise indication of how
the attached lens will capture it. It is also a prerequisite for using
particular focusing methods (see p. 180) and exposure metering
methods (see p. 182).
The
LV button (26) is used to turn live view mode on and off.
To make sure Live View mode is not activated unintentionally, you
can also disable the LV button.
Turning the LV button function on/off
1. In the main camera menu, (see p. 154/248) select
Exposure metering (page 1, CAMERA section), and
2. in the sub-menu select
Classic/LV deactivated.
Brightness of the Live View monitor image
Two options are available. In the default setting
Release button
half pressed, the subject is initially shown at the brightness
corresponding to an optimum exposure setting, i.e. independent of
the exposure mode (aperture priority/manual setting) and the
preset shutter speed/aperture settings.
This applies as long as
the subject brightness and the set exposure do not result in
exceptionally low or high brightness values, and
the internal exposure time is not longer than
1
/
30
s.
