LEICA S LENSES
Leica S lenses all have some characteristic external features:
- Their distance setting ring (1.8) works differently depending on which
focus mode is set:
- In manual mode (MF, see p. 16/26/37) the distance is set by turning
the ring, as normal - in this case it is mechanically coupled to the optical
construction from the outset.
- In autofocus mode (AFs/AFc, see p. 16/26/37) it is initially uncoupled,
so that holding the lens with the ring does not prevent motorized adjust-
ment. However, you can "override" the automatic setting at any time,
i.e. set the distance manually in AF mode. In this case, turning the ring
immediately couples it to the optical system.
- The internal distance scale can be read through a window (1.7).
- They do not have an aperture setting ring. The aperture is set using the
click wheel (1.18, see p. 42) on the camera body.
Note:
Some Leica S lenses are available with an integral central shutter.
ATTACHING AND REMOVING THE LENS
All lenses and accessories with a Leica S bayonet tting can be attached
to the Leica S.
Leica S lenses are attached as follows:
1. Position the red dot on the lens mount opposite the bayonet release
button (1.5c) on the camera body.
2. In this position, insert the lens.
3. Turn the lens as far as possible to the right, and you will hear and feel it
click into place.
To remove the lens
1. Press the release button
2. Unlock the lens by turning it to the left, and
3. Pull it straight off.
Notes:
To protect against ingress of dust etc. into the interior of the camera,
and particularly to keep the sensor surface free of dust as far as pos-
sible, it is important always to have a lens or a cover attached to the
camera body.
For the same reason, change lenses quickly and in an environment that
is as dust-free as possible.
Leica publishes rmware updates for lenses at irregular intervals. You
can easily download new rmware from our home page and transfer it to
your lens. Further information can be found on p. 64.
