Signal tones
On the LEICA S2, you can decide whether you want messages or
autofocus mode (see p. 33) to be acknowledged by acoustic sig-
nals - two volume levels are available - or whether you prefer the
camera to operate largely silently.
A beep is used as an acknowledgement, and can be activated
individually in autofocus mode to confirm that the setting has
been made and to indicate a message.
Note:
By factory default, the signal tones are deactivated.
Setting the functions
1. In the SETUP section of the menu (see p. 13/22), select
Acoustic Signal (5.27)
2. Call up the submenu. It consists of the 3 items Volume,
AF-Confirmation and Warnings.
3. Select Volume,
• A further submenu appears containing the 2 alternatives
High and Low.
4. Choose the desired function from this submenu.
• After confirmation, the initial monitor screen appears
again.
5. In the other two submenus, choose whether or not you want
to activate the tones for the respective functions.
Selecting On
For AF-Confirmation a signal sounds as soon as the focus is set
correctly, either automatically or manually, i.e. in conjunction
with the indicator 2.9b lighting up in the viewfinder (see p. 9).
For Warnings a signal sounds for all messages and warnings
that appear in the monitor (1.22), and when the self timer func-
tion is used (see p. 40).
Selecting Off for Warnings
Even if you select Off, an acoustic warning signal will sound in
two situations:
• if the door (1.25) of the memory card slot is opened while
transferring data (see p. 17)
• if the shutter will close again at the end of the sensor cleaning
process (see p. 58)
Monitor and top panel display
The LEICA S2 has two displays
- A colored OLED (organic light emitting diode) display (1.11),
and
- A large 3” liquid crystal color monitor (1.22).
- The top panel displays shows (see „Displays / In the top panel
display“, p. 10) the most important basic information about the
status of the memory card(s) and the battery, as well as for
exposure control. The monitor is primarily used for viewing pic-
tures recorded on the memory card(s) and reproduces the en -
tire field of the picture plus the selected data and information
(see „Displays / In the monitor“, p. 9). It can also be used to
either
- Display more image data in addition to the picture (see „Dis-
playing the picture data“ on this page) und a histogram (see
„Histogram“, p. 47),
or
- A comprehensive list of the most important picture parameters
currently set (see „Displays/In the monitor/4.3 Picture data
review“, p. 12).
On the LEICA S2-P version, the monitor is protected by an ex-
ceptionally hard, and therefore scratch-resistant, sapphire
glass cover.
Note:
A monitor image is only available in play mode (see p. 46). If ther
Auto review function is active (see p. 12) it is automatically turned
on.
Both displays can be adapted to the relevant situation, i.e. the
prevailing lighting conditions. The top panel display has adjust -
able brightness, while the monitor also has backlighting. The
brightness of the monitor is automatically adjusted depending
on the external brightness. This is done by the sensor 1.14.
Setting the functions
1. In the SETUP section of the menu (see p. 13/22), select
Monitor/Display (5.27)
2. In the first submenu choose whether you want to set the
monitor – Back Plane, or the top panel display –
Top Cover,
To set the monitor:
3. In the second submenu, choose whether you want to set the
Brightness or Backlight and
4. finally set the desired level in the relevant submenu. Three
levels are available for the Brightness , while for Backlight
there are five plus an additional automatic setting.
To set the top panel display:
3. In the second submenu, select Top Cover, and finally
4. set the desired level.
