Connecting and transferring data with the camera as an
external drive (Mass Storage)
With Windows® operating systems:
If the LEICA S2 is connected to the computer using the USB
cable, the operating system detects it as an external drive and
assigns it a drive letter. Use Windows® Explorer to trans-
fer/save the image data to your computer.
With Mac® operating systems:
If the LEICA S2 is connected to the computer using the USB
cable, the memory card used appears as a storage medium on
the desktop. Use the Finder to transfer/save the image data to
your computer.
Note:
As long as this function is active, all other camera functions are
blocked.
Important:
• Only use the USB cable (D) supplied.
• While data is being transferred from the LEICA S2 to the com-
puter, the connection may not under any circumstances be
broken by removing the USB cable, as otherwise the compu-
ter and/or the LEICA S2 can crash and may cause irreparable
damage to the memory card.
While data is being transferred from the LEICA S2 to the com -
puter, the camera may not be turned off or turn itself off due to a
lack of battery capacity, as otherwise the computer can crash.
For the same reason the battery must never be removed from
the camera whilst the connection is active. If the battery capaci-
ty is about to run out during data transfer, stop the data transfer,
turn off the LEICA S2 (see p. 21) and charge the battery (see p.
14).
Connecting and transferring data using card readers
The image files can also be transferred to other computers
using a standard card reader for CF or SD/SDHC memory
cards. Card readers with a USB interface are available for com-
puters with a USB interface. If your computer is equipped with a
PCMCIA slot (common on portable models), plug-in cards with a
PCMCIA connection are available as an alternative. These devices,
and further information about them, are available from a com-
puter accessory dealer.
Data structure on the memory card
When the data stored on a card is transferred to a computer, the
following folder structure is used:
Up to 9999 pictures can be stored in the folders 100LEICA-,
101LEICA-, etc.
Adobe® Photoshop® Lightroom®
If you have selected the standardized and future-proof DNG
(Digital Negative) format, you require highly specialized soft-
ware to convert the saved raw data into optimum quality, for
example the professional Adobe® Photoshop® Lightroom®.
It provides quality-optimized algorithms for digital color process -
ing, delivering exceptionally low noise photographs with incre-
dible resolution.
During editing, you have the option of adjusting parameters
such as white balance, noise reduction, gradation, sharpness
etc. to achieve an optimum image quality.
Adobe® Photoshop® Lightroom® is available as a free download
when you register your LEICA S2 on the Leica Camera AG home -
page. Further details can be found on the registration card in
the camera packaging.
LEICA Image Shuttle
The exclusive LEICA Image Shuttle software enables you to
remotely control the camera from a computer and to directly
store the image data on the computer's hard drive for „tethered
shooting“. All of the key camera functions can be controlled.
This convenient solution provides ideal support in the studio
and on location.
LEICA Image Shuttle is available as a free download when you
register your LEICA S2 on the Leica Camera AG homepage. Furt-
her details can be found on the registration card in the camera
packaging.
System requirements
Microsoft® Windows® XP Professional or Home Edition with
Service Pack 2 / Vista; Mac OS X 10.5.6 or later
On some Windows versions, it is possible that the operating
system will issue a warning about a missing Windows signature.
Ignore this message and continue with the installation.
