Depth of field preview button and depth of field
You can use the depth of field preview button (1.4) on the LEICA S2
to close the open lens aperture for every exposure mode to the
set or automatically determined aperture value. The correct
values remain displayed in the monitor and the top panel dis-
play. However, the exposure meter is turned off.
Prerequisites for stopping down:
1. The exposure meter has been turned on with the shutter
release button (see p. 32), and
2. the shutter release button is no longer pressed.
The shutter release button is blocked when the depth of field
preview button is pressed.
Additional functions
User / application specific profiles
On the LEICA S2, any combination of menu settings can be per-
manently stored, e.g. so that they can be retrieved quickly and
easily at any time for recurring situations / subjects. A total of
four memory slots are available for these combinations, as well
as a factory default setting that can be retrieved at any time and
cannot be changed. You can change the names of the saved
profiles. Profiles set on the camera can be transferred onto one
of the memory cards, for example for use in other camera units,
while profiles stored on a card can be transferred onto the
camera.
