For exposures wit
h slow shutter speeds you must, of
course, have a firm support. A tripod is ideal in
conjunction with a locking cable-
coble-
release without pressing the button. The handy
LEITZ table tripod is very useful when travelling.

is coupled with the transport lever. If the film was
correctly loaded (see notes on pages 24-

counter indicates the number of exposures made. The
counter stops at No. 40, and automatically returns to
its initial position when you withdraw the take-

controls the exposure times. The
engraved figures stand for

second, and
1 stands for

second, i.e. 1 se-
cond. The dial engages at each
position when the set shutter
speeds opposite the small index
line, and remains at this setting.
You can therefore set or read off
the speeds equally well before or
after tensioning the shutter. When
set to "B," the shutter remains
open as long as the release
button is depressed.
Intermediate shutter speeds can
be set within the range of 1 to

dial features click-stops at all
engraved settings.
The photo-electric exposure meter LEICAMETER
"MC" couples to the shutter speed dial as shown
on pages 19-21.
