Picture mode
Conversely, as soon as you press the shutter release to the first
pressure point the brightness of the monitor image matches the
exposure setting. This allows you to assess the effect the exposure
setting will have on the image before shooting.
The second option,
Continuous, is effective only with a manual
exposure setting. It always shows the effects of your shutter speed
and aperture settings by a correspondingly brighter or darker
monitor image.
Setting the function
1. In the main camera menu, (see p. 154/248) select
Exposure simulation (page 4, SETUP section),
2. call up the sub-menu, and
3. from it select
Shutter release half pressed for the first mode,
or
Continuous for the second.
By default, the live view monitor image contains some fundamental
information in a header. You can use the
INFO button (32) to select
two other views with more information (see p. 242).
In the first, you can additionally view frames for the aspect ratios
1:1, 3:4, 6:7 or 16:9. This can make image composition for
subsequent detailing much easier.
The frames are selected in sequence by moving the direction pad
up or down.
Horizon
If this function is enabled, a fourth view featuring a spirit level is
available. Based on integrated sensors and this view, the Leica M is
able to display its orientation. This enables you to align the camera
precisely in the longitudinal and transverse axis to capture critical
subjects, e.g. architecture pictures.
Turning the spirit level view on/off
1. In the main camera menu, (see p. 154/248) select
Horizon
(page 4,
SETUP section),
2. call up the sub-menu, and
3. from it select
On or Off.
A vertical scale and a horizontal bar appear in the monitor.
Variations from the relevant zero positions are indicated
graphically– by red markings – and the horizontal alignment
in the longitudinal and transverse axis by a central green
marking.
Notes:
Live view mode is based on the image captured by the sensor.
To use it, the shutter must be open and it is closed and
re-cocked when the function is cancelled. Of course, this is
audible and results in a slight delay in the shutter release.
When used frequently, live view mode results in increased power
consumption.
Alternating current causes fluctuations in the brightness of many
light sources which are invisible to the eye. Owing to the
sensitivity and scan rate of image sensors, this can result in
flickering of the monitor image or lines in videos (not photos).
The effect can be eliminated from the shot by choosing a slower
shutter speed.
